Miller launches P&C team

Re/insurance broker Miller has combined its property and casualty specialists into one unit, which will be headed by Ken MacDonald.

According to the broker, the unified team will “enhance the service it provides to its corporate, intermediary and captive clients, offering them seamless access to UK and international insurance markets.”

Graham Clark, CEO, said: “Facilitating close working relationships between our property and casualty specialists will help us to build on our reputation for being responsive to client needs and providing market leading advice.”

MacDonald added: “These enhancements will further improve the service we provide to our clients based in the UK and internationally and is in line with our development plans.”

Charles Lane, previously head of casualty at Faber Global, has been appointed as head of international casualty and will lead a team which includes five other new appointments. They will work closely with Miller’s existing property and casualty specialists.

Lane has 30 years of experience in casualty insurance production and broking for clients based in a range of international locations. He began his career at Sedgwick in 1984 before leaving to set up the property and casualty wholesale division at Glenrand (later Glencairn) in 2000 where he was a board director.

Tim Sloan has been appointed as head of property and casualty claims. He has more than 15 years of claims handling experience.

Working on growing Miller’s book of international clients are James Stringer with 24 years of casualty insurance experience and Fiona Woodcock who began her career in 2008.

Kevin Grimes, previously of Sedgwick, will provide the team with operational support. He has 40 years of experience in operations roles.

Clare Sorboen, who has 25 years of insurance industry experience, will support the broking team.
