United Educators (UE) vice president Joe E. Carter (pictured) is now the vice chair of Vermont Captive Insurance Association (VCIA), the organization has announced.
Carter said that his appointment to VCIA’s board is another opportunity to serve.
“I have a deep appreciation for the essential role captives play in supporting their members,” Carter commented about his appointment. “Helping lead VCIA is an opportunity to serve a wide spectrum of self-insurers across the country.”
Based on his profile, published on UE’s website, as the company’s vice president Carter is responsible for setting the growth strategy for the organization including planning the business development and distribution strategies that ensure success. Carter also handles the teams that manage UE’s brand and constituent experience strategy, the Voice of Constituent (VOC) program, digital experience, member support, marketing, and communications.
Before becoming part of UE’s leadership, Carter served in executive and leadership roles at Bank of America, Prudential Property and Casualty, and Allstate Corporation. According to his LinkedIn profile, Carter served as agency/district manager for Allstate from 1997 to 2000; as territorial manager at Prudential Financial from 2000 to 2003; and as managing director and VP at Bank of America, from 2003 to 2005. Furthermore, he also served as president of Education Insurance Services for almost four years.
In addition, Carter also sits on the boards of NBOA (a national association for independent school business leaders) and the Education Foundation at Old Dominion University. He is also an active member of several other education-focused associations.
Meanwhile, as an organization, VCIA has full-time legal representation at both the state and federal levels working on behalf of the captive industry. The organization’s CEO, legislative committee, and board of directors work hand-in-hand in monitoring legislation and guiding legislators/policymakers in addressing unintended outcomes and recommending further enhancements in the existing laws and regulations, as necessary to protect the interests and welfare of the industry.
