Pen Underwriting bolsters sales team

MGA Pen Underwriting has strengthened its regional support of UK brokers with the appointment of Matt Cannell and Will Roffey to its UK Sales & Distribution team.

In their new roles, Cannell and Roffey are responsible for providing strategic support to Pen’s brokers in the Midlands and East regions respectively, and building new broker relationships.

Bringing over 10 years’ insurance experience, Cannell joins Pen from the South West business development team at Aspen Risk Management. Prior to this, he held roles at Marsh, Aviva and Aon in both broking and underwriting.

Based in East Anglia, Roffey joins Pen from Towergate Insurance, where he spent four years as an account executive. He also has experience in account management, having started his career at NFU Mutual as a sales consultant in 2011.

Cannell said: “It’s an exciting time to join Pen and be part of a team whose drive, ambition and client-focused approach matches my own.

“I am looking forward to working with brokers in the Midlands to help them find innovative solutions for their clients’ insurance needs.”

Roffey added: “Pen offers an impressive array of products and services across multiple distribution channels to brokers – enabling them to stand out to their clients in an ever-competitive environment.

“I am looking forward to ensuring we maximise our opportunities and showcase the breadth and depth of our specialist offerings.”

Nick Milton, head of UK sales and distribution, added: “We’re delighted to be welcoming more talented insurance professionals to Pen Underwriting’s sales team as we look to further enhance our support of brokers regionally.

“Both bring knowledge and experience of the UK broker market and importantly, a different perspective on broker development – enabling us to continue to deliver great service and drive organic growth.”
