Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance (BHSI) has appointed Dirk Flesch (pictured) as the new head of its marine operations in Germany.
He moves up from his position as senior underwriter for marine at the insurance giant, which he joined in 2017. Flesch boasts more than two decades of experience in marine insurance.
In his new position, Flesch will be tasked with overseeing underwriting of the company’s full line of marine products, including cargo (stock-rough-put and multinational) and logistics liability. He will continue to be based in Cologne.
“Dirk has been pivotal in advancing our marine insurance portfolio and capabilities,” said Andreas Krause, Germany country manager. “In his new role, he will lead our efforts to leverage BHSI’s expansive global network and extensive marine expertise to provide our customers and brokers with state-of-the-art marine solutions worldwide.”
