AmWINS adds Beazley's global property head to leadership team

AmWINS Group, a global distributor of specialty insurance products and services, has hired Beazley's Mark Bernacki as president of AmWINS Special Risk Underwriters (SRU) and executive vice president of AmWINS Group.

Bernacki spent 14 years at the Beazley Group, most recently as head of global property and as a member of the executive committee. Prior to that, he worked at Liberty Mutual Group in various leadership roles, including vice president of broker operations for Liberty Mutual Property.

In his new role, Bernacki will drive strategy and build capacity for SRU, which underwrites risks on behalf of domestic and international carriers and distributes exclusively via AmWINS brokers. As executive vice president for AmWINS Group, he will lead the alternative risk team and work with underwriting division president Bob Petrilli to grow the division organically and via M&A.

“Mark brings a depth of knowledge and experience to our property business and adds valuable perspective based on his time spent in London, said Petrilli. “His market savvy, combined with his industry relationships, will be a perfect fit to support SRU’s continued growth and to deepen market connections for the division as a whole.”

Bernacki commented: “I’m thrilled to join the AmWINS family. The opportunity to build on such a strong foundation alongside a team who shares my beliefs and business values makes me excited for what’s to come.”
