Located in Bermuda, he will have responsibility for the Markel CATCo day-to-day operations. He will report directly to Tony Belisle, chief executive officer, Market CATCo.

He is the ideal person to maintain the high standards we set for ourselves.

“Mark has continued to assume more responsibility with respect to a number of facets of our business over the years including managing relationships with our clients and shareholders. Mark will be instrumental in ensuring a seamless transition both with respect to our new ownership and in his new role as chief operating officer.”
