Carrick Group Limited, a Bermuda-based international non-life legacy insurer, has appointed Matt Brand as Head of Governance.

carrick-holdings-logoBrand joins from Hampden Group, where he spent a decade, most recently serving as Group Head of Operations. In his new role, he reports to Chief Executive Officer Tom Nichols and is tasked with ensuring Carrick’s operations meet regulatory requirements in both Bermuda and the UK.

Based in London, Brand began his career in 2005 at Seymour Taylor before moving to Blick Rothenberg, where he held the position of Client Manager.

Earlier this year, Carrick also reinforced its team with two additional appointments: Alex Smith as Senior Vice President, Operations, in London, and Aidan Mills as Vice President of M&A, in Bermuda.

“As Carrick continues to grow into new regulated jurisdictions, we are delighted to welcome Matt to head up our global corporate governance, ensuring that Carrick continues its regulatory excellence with consistency and transparency,” added Nichols.

“I am thrilled to lead the corporate governance function at Carrick Holdings,” commented Brand. “My priority is to ensure our protocols remain rigorous and effective as we provide specialised finality solutions to the market. I look forward to leveraging my background in the sector to protect the interests of our stakeholders and support Carrick’s long-term success.”
