Argo lures Amlin exec

Lloyd’s insurer ArgoGlobal has appointed Davinia Melachrinos as marine hull underwriter.

She will report to Richard Hoole, yacht & hull class underwriter.

Melachrinos joins from Amlin where she served, most recently, as hull and machinery assistant underwriter. She began her career as a risk coordinator with Wellington.

Philip Thorpe-Apps, head of marine and energy, said: “Davinia is a highly promising and talented underwriter who has already displayed a level of technical proficiency which has marked her out from her peers. I am very pleased to welcome her to the team and am certain that she will be a key asset to the Argo marine business.”
