Hamilton US lures Guy Carp exec
Hamilton USA, the New Jersey-based insurance operations of Hamilton Insurance Group, has appointed Rich Koehler as president, middle market & programmes.
Koehler will report to chief executive officer Conan Ward and will be based in Princeton.
He joins from Guy Carpenter where he was managing director. Previous experience as a broker included positions at Marsh & McLennan, and at Centre Re and Munich Re America as an underwriter.
Ward said: “One of the most satisfying aspects of building Hamilton USA has been hiring the right people for the right job. I’ve always believed this is the key to any organisation’s success.
“Rich is the right person for the job of developing our middle market and program book of business. While he was at Guy Carpenter, Rich was instrumental in establishing our business plan. His broad experience, as a broker, insurer, and reinsurer, gives him the perspective we’re looking for as we examine ways to shift the insurance paradigm.”
Koehler added: “Conan’s creative and innovative focus, and his passion to make a difference in the insurance sector, made the decision to join Hamilton USA an easy one. Add president of small commercial Ed Pulkstenis’ depth of industry experience and executive vice president business development Barbara Bufkin’s global network of relationships and success in executing global strategies, and I’m honoured to join this dynamic, young company. I look forward to contributing to its growth and development.”
