Ones to Watch Fall 2022: Kenny Eisman, HUB International
Assistant Vice President
HUB International
What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of?
Recently, we helped a client secure insurance for a substantial number of buildings as their first major purchase. When growing your real estate portfolio from 1- 15 buildings, there are different needs that require industry knowledge and guidance. Being able to help my clients feel fully protected so that they can focus on growing their business is something that I take great pride in.
Tell us about a mentor or role model that has influenced your career choices?
Ironically, my brother started out in this business and didn’t like it at all. We talked a lot, and many of the things he didn’t like, I found to be perfect to what I was looking for in a career. He helped transition me into my role and left to pursue other endeavors. From there, I truly found a passion in insurance and helping businesses protect their most valued investments.
What do you enjoy doing when you are not working?
When I am not working, I love spending time with my son. Since he was born two years ago, we made it a habit of going swimming with him every week. He loves the pool and seeing him smile in it makes my day.
