They say two heads are better than one, but what about three?

W/R/B Underwriting has made a triple addition to its property team – swooping for Sarah Reeve (pictured above), Dan Black (pictured immediately below) and Olly Durell (pictured further below).

Reeve joins the firm as a senior underwriter, having built up more than 13 years’ experience across global property underwriting – most recently in Singapore. She was previously with AXA XL, but has also enjoyed stints at the likes of RSA and Aspen Re.

Also joining as a senior underwriter, Dan Black had spent more than a decade with MS Amlin within its global direct and facultative property team.

Meanwhile, Olly Durell joins the firm as a senior property underwriter next month. Currently he is a global property underwriter at Hiscox, where he has been since 2013.

“We write a global book of D&F property business though Lloyd’s and these senior underwriting additions will certainly add strength and depth to an already experienced and successful team,” said W/R/B Underwriting chief executive Alastair Blades. “As our recent underwriting results have shown, we operate a robust and profitable business with a consistent approach to our brokers and clients. We call this ‘Intelligent Underwriting’.

“I would like to welcome Dan, Sarah and Olly to W/R/B Underwriting. Each one of them comes with an impressive track record and reputation within the market. I am looking forward to working with them and delivering on our promises to our brokers and clients in these most testing of times.”
