Ardonagh-owned Price Forbes taps JLT, Marsh, Miller execs

Specialist insurance broker Price Forbes, part of the Ardonagh Group of companies, has expanded its power, utility and construction team with four new appointments from JLT, Marsh and Miller.

Simon Howell joins from Marsh UK where he was a managing director and placement leader for power and utilities, and was a member of the energy and power practice executive committee.

Howell is joined on the team by James Williams, David Cramphorn and Charlotte Higgins.

Williams arrives from JLT Specialty’s energy division, and prior to that he worked at Aon and Marsh.

Both Cramphorn and Higgins were most recently at Miller Insurance Services.

Cramphorn has previously worked at Cooper Gay in their non-marine division, and was responsible for broking worldwide construction risks before moving to Marsh, where he served as an account handler for the global downstream energy team. In 2015, Cramphorn joined Miller to work within their onshore energy team as an account handler and broker.

James Masterton, CEO of Price Forbes, said: “We are delighted to welcome Simon, James, David & Charlotte to such a leading team in the industry. They bring with them a wealth of knowledge and expertise which I firmly believe when combined with our existing strengths, will be extremely beneficial to our producers and clients. We are excited for the opportunities this combination will bring.”

Howell said: “I’m delighted to be joining Price Forbes at an exciting time as the company accelerates growth plans, whilst maintaining their independent broker status and dedication to client service excellence. I am excited to be joining the team and look forward to building on the Price Forbes brand in our target markets.”
