NFP taps Gallagher to expand in ‘challenging’ aviation market
US property and casualty broker NFP has hired a senior Gallagher executive to lead its aviation specialty practice in the current “challenging” market.
Josh Jeter (pictured) joins NFP as senior vice president and aviation specialty practice leader as part of the company’s Aviation Industry Group. Jeter will advise clients across their aviation and aerospace exposures by developing risk mitigation strategies to safeguard against various financial and reputational risks. He will report to Matthew Schott, managing director, management, cyber and professional liability, for NFP.
Jeter comes to NFP from Gallagher, where he served as area vice president in its aerospace practice. Prior to that, he served as an aviation underwriter specialist at Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty and as assistant manager of Aviation & Reinsurance at Ironshore Insurance Services.
Jeter continues to serve as a part-time member of the Air National Guard, with more than 16 years of aircraft maintenance experience. He is currently enrolled in the Air and Space Law graduate certificate program at the University of Mississippi’s School of Law.
“We are excited to welcome Josh to NFP and our Aviation practice. Given the current challenges in the aviation market, it is more important than ever to ensure our clients have access to the expertise required to navigate the myriad exposures they face,” said Schott.
“Josh’s energised approach to serving clients and his understanding of various elements of the aviation market, including insurance carriers and brokerage, make him a great fit to lead our Aviation practice.”
Jeter commented: “I am incredibly excited to join NFP and take on this opportunity to expand the firm’s presence in the aviation and aerospace segment. NFP continues to grow and add specialized expertise across its P&C business. I’m honoured to be a part of this growth and support clients by providing risk management and transfer strategies within this challenging market.”
