The Hanover hires AmWINS executive for senior specialty role
US-based property/casualty insurer The Hanover has appointed James Kelley as president of Hanover Specialty Industrial Property.
Kelley will be responsible for enhancing the company's broad portfolio of insurance solutions for complex high hazard industrial businesses. He replaces James Abraham, who will be retiring from the organisation this month.
Kelley began his career as a loss control consultant and has held both leadership and technical roles of increasing responsibility over the past 25 years. Most recently, he served as senior vice president at AmWINS, overseeing a unit consisting of nine, multi-line niche programs. Previously, Kelley held key roles at The Hartford and Travelers in property underwriting, property and marine product development, loss control and risk management.
"We are pleased to welcome Jim to the team and know he'll bring his wealth of industrial property experience to our organization," said Bryan J. Salvatore, president of specialty at The Hanover. "Hanover Specialty Industrial Property is an important component of our suite of specialized offerings for our agents. Under Jim's leadership, we will continue to invest in and leverage our broad offering so that our agents can better serve their clients with high hazard property exposures."
