Litigation insurance specialist Ignite has announced the appointments of Sally-Anne Bradley and Amy Rothbarth to key roles in operations and underwriting.
Rothbarth joins Ignite as a technical underwriter. She brings expert knowledge of commercial disputes and insolvency litigation to this new role, having spent the last five years as a restructuring and insolvency associate at Mayer Brown.
Meanwhile, Bradley has been tapped to focus on after the event (ATE) insurance, a type of litigation insurance designed to mitigate the risk of an adverse costs order. As ATE operations manager, she will leverage her two-decade legal operational experience to enhance the delivery of the firm’s ATE insurance product suite.
Prior to joining Ignite, Bradley ran ROCK Business Support, a business she founded in 2014. Her background also includes a nine-year stint as operations manager at Elite Insurance and a six-year tenure at Eversheds Sutherland.
Commenting on the new hires, Ignite CEO and co-founder Byron Sumner underscored the level of expertise that both Bradley and Rothbarth are bringing to the firm.
“Sally-Anne's reputation for delivering exceptional client focused technical and operational solutions has made her a standout professional in the industry,” said Sumner in an emailed news release. “Her expertise aligns seamlessly with Ignite’s innovation and commitment to operational excellence. Her appointment underscores our dedication to delivering exceptional services and innovative solutions to our clients.”
He continued: “Amy has extensive litigation experience which will be invaluable as we go forward into a new year full of exciting developments for Ignite. With both Amy and Sally-Anne onboard, we are confident that we are well-equipped to deliver the best service by capitalising fully on emerging opportunities.”
