Brit poaches from Ascot to target North America growth
Brit has appointed Nick Pozzebon to lead its existing Chicago-based US property facultative team for Brit Global Specialty, USA.
Pozzebon brings over eight years of sector expertise and joins from Ascot where he was latterly senior vice president (SVP), Property Facultative Reinsurance. He will report to Noreen Metcalfe, SVP, property.
The appointment follows the launch earlier this year of a new general liability team and the appointment of Kent Stepanishen as SVP to lead the new inland marine team for Brit Global Specialty USA. The hires are part of the group’s strategy to expand its footprint in North America and to focus on growing profitably in specialist areas where it has significant expertise and experience.
“We are delighted to have someone of Nick’s calibre lead our US facultative business,” said Metcalfe.
“Nick has a pedigree in growing individual risk and automatic placements with key ceding companies through strong broker relationships. He fits our model perfectly.”
Nick Davies, president of Brit Global Specialty Americas, added: “By hiring Nick we are signalling our ongoing commitment to the facultative arena where we have built a strong franchise around expertise and service. He brings the leadership needed to enhance our business further.”
