CareersKrist Insurance in West Des Moines Joins North Risk Partners
Effective May 1, Krist Insurance Services in West Des Moines, Iowa joined North Risk Partners, one of the largest independent insurance broker and risk advisory firms in the Midwest.
Krist Insurance was founded in 1993 by Lisa Krist and her late husband, Jamie Krist. AJ Krist, son of Lisa and Jamie and a co-owner of the agency, has joined North Risk Partners as a partner and member of the firm’s commercial property and casualty insurance sales leadership group. With this new partnership, Lisa Krist made the decision to pursue endeavors outside of the insurance industry. Eight additional Krist team members have joined the North Risk team alongside AJ.
“We selected North Risk as a partner because of its service-focused culture and because our values aligned,” says AJ. “The larger scale resources also increase our ability to serve our clients, as well as our community and coworkers.”
