Ideal Background

  • Senior leadership experience within the London marine insurance market
  • Strong relationships with marine brokers and underwriters, with established market credibility
  • Entrepreneurial mindset and ability to operate in a high-growth environment
  • Proven track record of growing teams, portfolios, and revenue
