Chartered insurance broker Miller Insurance Services LLP has tapped Charlie Simpson to serve as head of Bermuda.
Part of the UK-headquartered group’s ongoing international expansion, the appointment will see Simpson lead Miller’s new platform, concentrating on growing the broker’s presence in what was described as a key (re)insurance hub. More hires, meanwhile, will be announced soon.
“I am delighted to join Miller given its excellent reputation and collaborative culture,” commented Simpson, who brings more than four decades of industry experience to the post.
“The opportunity to develop Miller’s strategy in Bermuda is a unique and exciting challenge, and I look forward to reconnecting with my contacts on the island and fostering new relationships as we expand our platform.”
Prior to joining Miller, Simpson was executive vice president of non-marine at Aon. His credentials also include time spent at Guy Carpenter, R K Carvill, Jardine Lloyd Thompson, and BMS Reinsurance.
Lifting the lid on Simpson’s arrival, chief executive Greg Collins said: “Miller is committed to providing best-in-class service and solutions, and we continue to hire exceptional people to deliver on our commitments to clients.
“Bermuda was an obvious choice of location for our continued expansion given its excellent reputation. With his considerable experience and market contacts, we are delighted that Charlie has joined us to shape and drive our strategy on the island.”
Across the group, Miller employs more than 650 people manning its UK and international operations.
