There has been a surge in recent developments at Specialist Risk Group (SRG). On the back of the acquisitions of Insolvency Risk Services, David Codling and Associates and Square Mile Broking, the firm has now swooped for a key name – picking up Chris Lennon from Gallagher.
Lennon joins as sales and development director for Specialist Risk Insurance Solutions (SRIS), bringing with him two decades of experience across commercial and corporate broking, including time spent with Lockton and HSBC. At Gallagher he was head of sales and distribution for Niche UK business.
“I am delighted to be joining Specialist Risk Group at this exciting time,” he said. “SRG is a great business, which I have long admired. The combination of their reputation for doing difficult things well and their focus on being a true provider of specialist solutions is unique and compelling. I am excited to be joining the SRIS management team and helping to continue its growth journey.”
According to SRIS managing director Lee Anderson (pictured), Lennon will help the firm grow across core specialisms such as construction, cyber and professional risks.
“Chris is a highly knowledge and experienced sales leader and we are delighted to have him join us,” he said. “This has been an exciting year for our business, and we are looking forward to adding Chris’s skillset to the SRIS leadership team. SRIS is already on a high growth trajectory and we believe Chris will help us to accelerate in our core specialisms.”
