JUSTIN MACKENZIE
Commercial Account Executive
Justin MacKenzie is a Commercial Account Executive at First West Insurance specializing in complex construction risks. He works with general contractors, specialty subcontractors, and project owners across the country to design insurance programs that match the actual risk profile of their work, not just satisfy a certificate requirement.
Before joining First West in 2023, Justin spent over two decades in Hawaii specializing in retail real estate development and construction, working across more than a million square feet of company-owned and third-party properties with Fortune 500 companies, private equity firms, and national retailers. That background gives him a genuine understanding of how construction projects are structured, what owners and GCs expect from their subcontractors, and where insurance gaps most commonly create problems.
Justin is based in Bozeman, Montana, and is licensed to place coverage nationally.
