BMS builds Asia operations with senior hire from Aon

Specialist re/insurance broker BMS Group has appointed Sandra Lee as the head of its operations in Asia. She joins from Aon.

Lee has been heading Aon’s transactions liability team in Asia since 2012. Prior to that, she practiced as an M&A lawyer for nine years in Hong Kong, Paris and Singapore, at international law firms including Linklaters, Gide Loyrette Nouel, Clifford Chance and WongPartnership.

Lee, who is currently based in Hong Kong, will join BMS upon completion of current contractual obligations.

Nick Cook, CEO at BMS Group, said: “Asia is a crucial market and this appointment marks the beginning of a broader expansion plan in the region. Our expansion is always driven by outstanding local talent and we are therefore very pleased to have Sandra join BMS.

"Additionally, Sandra’s experience and expertise in M&A and tax liability insurance is market-leading. She will help develop the Group’s global M&A broking business and work closely with our new Private Equity, M&A and Tax division in London as it continues to grow.”
