Vice president of transportation
Genesee General
More than a decade ago, Eden Hancock entered the industry at a large wholesale brokerage, where she handled professional lines. After deciding to focus on transportation, Hancock joined Genesee General in 2010 as an underwriter. Within two years, she became the wholesaler’s top producer, and by 2014 she was promoted to head of the transportation department. Today, as vice president of transportation, Hancock manages the day-to-day coordination with retail agents, including market relations, strategic planning and problem-solving.
Hancock’s advice for women in the industry: “Surround yourself with dedicated, hard-working and positive colleagues. Stay close to those who challenge you, and always give thanks to those who have helped you along the way.”
