Bluefin Underwriting hires Dual exec as broker development exec

Bluefin Underwriting, the managing general agent (MGA) arm of Bluefin, has expanded its broker development team with the appointment of Jodie Gibbons as broker development executive in the Wales and South West region.

Gibbons joins from Dual, bringing with her 18 years of experience in commercial underwriting, particularly in agriculture and financial lines. She will work closely with brokers in Wales and the South West, giving them access to Bluefin Underwriting’s specialist products.

“I am really excited about the role and see the opportunities to develop within Bluefin Underwriting as significant,” said Gibbons. “My previous experience will help me push Bluefin Underwriting’s key products to brokers in the region and I’m looking forward to working with them.”

Paul Drake, head of Bluefin Underwriting, added: “I am delighted with the appointment and I am convinced that Jodie’s energy, enthusiasm and particular understanding of key Bluefin Underwriting specialisms, especially farm and financial lines will be a significant asset as we build our key broker relationships.

“With exciting plans for expansion to Bluefin Underwriting’s footprint, this is a great time for Jodie to come on board.”
