Specialist re/insurance broker Miller has announced the expansion of its delegated Authority offering with the appointment of five new hires to form a Canadian team.
The team will be formed of Steve Maslen, Matt Dear, Mike Biddle, Saif Sulaiman and Nick Wilson, whom each join from Tysers, and hold significant experience in the Canadian property & casualty market.
Maslen and Dear will both lead the team, having longstanding experience operating in the London Market with a specific focus on Canadian business.
Miller suggests that the appointments reflect the company’s continued investment in broadening its product offering and jurisdictional capabilities in the Delegated Authority space.
The new team will report to Chris Hardcastle, who was appointed Head of Delegated Authority in April.
Hardcastle commented on the expansion, stating, “We are delighted to welcome the team to Miller. These appointments bring significant expertise, experience and relationships that will further enhance our exceptional Delegated Authority capabilities and are a great complement to our existing operations.”
Maslen, said, “Miller has a great reputation in the market and this is an exciting opportunity to continue building out their fast-growing proposition in the Delegated Authority space. We are hugely excited to be joining and look forward to the many opportunities that lie ahead.”
Dear, added, “The excellent culture and support network at Miller was a huge draw for the team. Their commitment to meeting the ever-changing needs of clients creates a great environment to look at business in a new and innovative way.”
“I very much look forward to working with Chris and the rest of the Delegated Authority team to continue enhancing Miller’s capabilities in this space.”
