California-based Alliant Insurance has appointed Robert Bothwell as executive vice president of its energy and marine group, and has hired six other executives from Bothwell’s team.

Brendan Fountain has joined the company as assistant vice president, Brenna Melvin as senior vice president, Kolleen Rahilly as the first vice president, Cara McGrath as account manager, and Bridget McBride and Valerie Maher as assistant account managers.

Boston-based Bothwell and his team has been brought in to provide risk management and insurance solutions to a global client base.

Alliant aims to expand its offerings in the power and utility sector and bolster its operations in the Northeast region with the new appointments.
