Jupiter, a provider of predictive data and analytics for climate risk and resilience, has appointed Marc Lehmann as Head of Business Development and Partnerships, UK & Europe.
In his new role, Lehmann will lead Jupiter’s ongoing expansion in UK & European markets.
Prior to joining Jupiter, he served as Director within the Climate Risk and Decarbonisation Strategy group at KPMG in London.
He’s also worked in several senior level roles within the insurance sector including Head of Client Service Development at AIG, and Global Head of Catastrophe Risk Management for corporate clients at Willis Towers Watson.
Rich Sorkin, CEO of Jupiter commented on Lehmann’s appointment: “European multinationals are sophisticated when it comes to climate-related risk. Marc’s deep expertise in insurance and cat risk in European markets and track record of growing new businesses make him the ideal person to guide Jupiter’s first wave of geographic expansion outside of the United States, building on our existing relationships with Zurich Insurance Group, BP and several others across the continent.”
Lehmann added: “Climate change continues to dominate the risk agenda at board level for many major corporate and financial services organisations in the UK/Europe and there is an ever growing need for focused analytics to help firms identify, quantify and manage these risks. Nobody is addressing physical climate risk as comprehensively and effectively as Jupiter, which is why I’m so thrilled to be joining them now.”
