Markel taps MS Amlin veteran to play ‘crucial role’ in growth
Specialist insurer Markel has hired a long-serving MS Amlin senior executive to play a crucial role in further enhancing its market position in the hull and war space.
Paul Western (pictured) will join as a senior underwriter for hull and war. He will report to Dan McCarthy, head of hull and war at Markel International.
Western has spent nearly 27 years at re/insurer MS Amlin, where he was the head of hull and war. He currently sits on both the Joint Hull Committee and the Joint War Committee at Lloyd’s.
Western’s arrival follows Markel promoting Katie Costello to senior underwriter, and Josh Wakely to assistant underwriter in September this year. It hopes Western will add significant experience to Markel’s hull and war team.
McCarthy said: “We are delighted to welcome Paul to Markel. With his vast knowledge and experience, he will play a crucial role in further enhancing our market standing and leadership position.”
Western commented: “I am delighted to be joining Markel, which has a successful and longstanding history as a leader in hull and war. In my role, I’m looking forward to growing our leadership position by supporting existing clients and developing new opportunities.”
