Charles Taylor hires former Xchanging exec to manage second Lloyd’s syndicate

Lloyd’s managing agent Charles Taylor Managing Agency has appointed Bev Sumner as director of operations.

Sumner joins the company with senior operations management experience at Lloyd’s and Xchanging. At Lloyd’s, she was the head of process and change. She was previously the operations director of UK insurance at Xchanging and was responsible for commercial re/insurance technical processing, accounting and settlement operations.

In her new role, Sumner will focus on developing and further strengthening company's operational capabilities to manage second Lloyd’s syndicate.

Christian Schirmer, chief executive officer, said: "Charles Taylor Managing Agency is ideally positioned to guide clients through Lloyd’s disciplined new entrants’ process. We were established as a turn-key managing agent, so all our systems and processes have been designed to provide flexibility and choice to our clients rather than offer a one-size-fits-all solution.

"We have been building a highly experienced senior management team and I am very pleased that Bev has chosen to join CTMA. She has a tremendous reputation across the Lloyd’s market for her drive and commitment to delivering continuous improvement and leading effective operations teams. She will be a huge asset to CTMA as we close in on our second syndicate appointment."
