Miller Insurance has hired producer and broker Julian Coates in Singapore to further expand its business in the Asia-Pacific region.
Coates will work closely with the brokerage’s property, casualty and energy teams in Singapore and London. He will focus mainly on property and downstream energy, as well as supporting other lines including upstream energy.
Before joining Miller, Coates was an associate director of Aon Risk Solutions based in Singapore. He joined Aon in 2009, spending his first six years working in the company’s Melbourne and Perth offices. He has experience in working with both insured and cedant clients in the region, as well as with underwriters in Singapore and beyond.
“Julian’s appointment demonstrates our firm desire to achieve our objectives and vision for Miller in Asia,” said Nigel Cross, head of Miller Singapore. “He will be a great asset to the team in addition to recent joiners John Moncavage and Piers Smith.”
