Marsh JLT Specialty appoints new global renewable energy leader

Broker Marsh has appointed Hamish Roberts as global renewable energy leader of Marsh JLT Specialty. Roberts has over 35 years of experience in the international energy and power sector, including six years at Aon.

In the newly created role, Roberts will develop the business’s renewable energy proposition and create new services and solutions. Effective January 1, he will continue to be based in London, reporting to Andrew George, global head, energy & power, Marsh JLT Specialty.

Roberts was previously power leader at Marsh JLT Specialty, and served as CEO of Aon’s global power specialty from 2008-2014.

George said: “Over the last 12 months, Marsh has invested significantly in expanding our specialist capabilities and geographical reach to support our clients in renewable energy and power. Hamish is an outstanding leader who has dedicated his career to the development of insurance and risk solutions that support the global transition to renewable energy. Under his leadership, we are strongly placed to assist the sector as it adapts to the challenges and opportunities it faces.”

Roberts added: “There is renewed political will as we approach the end of 2020 to move towards greater decarbonisation and more sustainable energy sources. As traditional energy companies continue to decarbonise their footprints – and market challengers seek to redefine the energy landscape – Marsh JLT Specialty’s Global Renewable Energy team will play a key role in supporting our clients and communities as they transition towards more sustainable and carbon-neutral futures.”
