Carl Smith, who most recently served as London Markets chief operating officer at Marsh, is making the switch to United Insurance Brokers (UIB) in the middle of next month.
Joining the international (re)insurance broker as operations director, Smith also brings experience from the likes of Cox Insurance and Sedgwick. His appointment comes hot on the heels of Partner Re and AXA Re alumnus Olivier Carriere’s arrival as a senior risk engineer within UIB’s engineering risk consultants business.
“Both Carl and Olivier are great additions to the team here at UIB,” said chief executive Shaun Barrington, who is pleased that the company continues to attract ‘the best talent available’.
Last month, the Lloyd’s broker welcomed Miles Taffs as deputy managing director of aviation & space. Prior to moving to UIB, Taffs was joint active underwriter and board director of Syndicate 2001.
