Hamilton swoops on Ironshore for head of management liability US E&S

Bermuda-based  Hamilton Insurance Group has hired a new head of management liability for its US excess and surplus (E&S) business.

Kevin Marzec (pictured) joins Hamilton with a wealth of experience in the wholesale management liability space, most recently having spent nearly 12 years with Ironshore in Tampa as assistant vice president, US wholesale D&O division where he developed a national strategy for tough-to-place business.

Prior to Ironshore, Marzec spent four years as private enterprise producer at Beazley Group in Atlanta. Early in his career, he spent several years as a senior underwriter at both ACE Westchester and AIG.

In his new role, reporting to Clay Rhoades, president of US E&S, Marzec has the responsibility for building out Hamilton's US-based book of management liability insurance business, leveraging Hamilton Insurance DAC, the company’s platform supporting US E&S lines.

Rhoades said: “[Marzec] has hit the ground running at a time when our team is undertaking rapid growth and he is quickly establishing a book of business writing primary and excess private company and not-for-profit directors and officers (D&O) liability, employment practices liability and fiduciary liability for hard-to-place accounts.”
