Global Risk Partners (GRP) has appointed Clive Nathan as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Group’s MGA division. He will join the business in April, 2018.
Nathan will succeed Stephen Ross, Chief Operating Officer (COO) who will concentrate on the Group’s M&A activity as GRP expands its UK footprint in both broking and underwriting.
Peter Cullum, Chairman of GRP, commented: “Clive brings a wealth of experience to the rapidly growing MGA division following his executive roles at both Towergate and Primary Group.
“Clive is joining the Group at a time when we are looking to expand significantly our MGA business with further acquisitions, hard on the heels of the investment in Camberford Law.”
Nathan joins GRP from Primary Group, where he served in a variety of senior roles including non-executive chairman of Rural Insurance and executive chairman of One Commercial.
From 2006-2016 he was CEO of Towergate Underwriting, after having joined the business in 2003 as a regional managing director.
Nathan said; “I am delighted to be joining the group as it continues its exciting trajectory in the UK insurance market. Its MGA division comprises a number of highly regarded specialty businesses and I look forward to working with them and the executive team at GRP.”
Nathan first began his career in 1987 as a graduate entrant with Commercial Union, he joined AXA UK in 1999 as national broker director and was involved in the acquisition of GRE that resulted in him becoming regional director.
He’s also a former member of the CII Underwriting Faculty and was awarded Industry Achiever of The Year by Insurance Times magazine in 2012.
