International General Insurance Holdings Limited (IGI), the specialist commercial insurer and reinsurer, has reinforced its energy offering with the appointment of James Green as Senior Underwriter for Downstream Energy.
Green will be tasked with growing and developing a focused renewable energy and conventional power portfolio with large corporate clients or Independent Power Providers as part of IGI’s wider downstream energy offering.
He joins IGI from Novae, where he most recently served as Class Underwriter for Renewable Energy, before which he was Renewable Energy Practice Leader at JLT Specialty Limited, and earlier spent seven years as an Analyst at XL Insurance.
In his new role, he will be based in IGI’s London office and will report to Hassane Rhazouani, Head of Downstream Energy, and Graham Hensman, Head of Energy.
“I am delighted to welcome someone of James’ calibre to the team in London,” said Hensman. “IGI has always had a strong focus on the renewable energy and power sectors and James will help us to expand this further. He brings a wealth of technical skill in both onshore and offshore renewable energy, and utility-scale power projects, which is a great addition to the team at IGI.”
Green added: “I am excited to be joining a company that is growing in both size and reputation, to assist and broaden the capabilities of their already successful downstream energy team.”
