Marsh appoints Bryce Check and Anna Whitfield to UK real estate practice

Insurance broker and risk adviser Marsh has appointed Bryce Check as business relationship director and Anna Whitfield as a client service director in the UK Real Estate Practice.

The UK real estate practice provides insurance and risk advisory services to real estate owners, operators, managers, and developers. Based in London, Check is expected to join the firm later this month; Whitfield joined on 7 October.

In his role, Check will join the UK Real Estate Practice’s sales team and be responsible for developing the global sales proposition, with a special focus on European markets. Check will join Marsh from Aon, where he was a business relationship director in the real estate practice for nearly 11 years.

Whitfield also joins Marsh from Aon.

Paul Moody, UK chief executive of Marsh JLT Specialty, said: “The UK real estate sector is continuing to battle significant headwinds, which stem from a wide range of economic, technological and political issues. In this environment, clients need advisers that have both the technical expertise and strategic insight to help them navigate these complex issues and continue to be successful.

“With their combined industry knowledge, Bryce and Anna are important additions to our UK real estate practice.”
