Miller launches European Delegated Authorities team
Miller, the independent specialist (re)insurance broker, is pleased to announce the expansion of its Delegated Authorities offering, with the launch of a new team dedicated to the European market. The team will be led by Laurie Gaitskell as Head of European Delegated Authorities, alongside Anne-Sophie Petit and Ilenia Pizzolitto.
The appointments are part of Miller’s continued investment in broadening its product offering and jurisdictional capabilities in the Delegated Authority space. The new team will specialise in open market and coverholder business, particularly SMEs and hard-to-place risks, in France, Switzerland and Monaco.
Laurie joins from Alesco Delegated Authority, part of Arthur J Gallagher, where he was International Director. He brings with him a depth of experience in both the Canadian and European markets and will work closely with Chris Hardcastle, Head of Delegated Authorities, and Matt Dear, Head of International Delegated Authorities.
Anne-Sophie and Ilenia similarly join from Alesco Delegated Authority. Collectively, the new team brings over 40 years of experience in the market.
Chris Hardcastle, Head of Delegated Authorities, commented: “I am delighted to welcome Laurie, Anne-Sophie and Ilenia to Miller. Their depth of experience in the French market further strengthens our European presence and is a great complement to our existing delegated authority business. As we continue to go from strength to strength, I’m excited to see our capabilities continue to evolve in this space.”
Laurie Gaitskell, added: “Miller’s independent status, forward-looking approach, and focus on growth made the decision to join an obvious one. They have a strong reputation both internationally and in the London market which will allow us to offer French insurance brokers and agents tailor-made solutions, including for risks which are often hard to place.”
