Specialist re/insurance broker Miller has hired Elisabeth Chalon Lambertin and Toni Beltzer to further expand its Surety offering in Europe.
Both Lambertin and Beltzer join Miller from Transitions, a surety broker specialising in surety, construction & real estate, which they co-founded in 2023.
Before founding Transitions, Lambertin was Head of Surety for Aon France, after having held Chief Legal Officer positions at a number of insurance groups, including Groupama & Natixis for over a decade.
Beltzer also holds extensive experience in surety & finance products for the construction and property development industry, having held roles at Groupam and BPCE.
At Miller, Lambertin will head up the firm’s surety offering in Europe, with France as a particular focus, supported by Beltzer as Producer Broker and Elodie Dancette as Account Executive.
Both will be based in Paris and will report to Arnaud Froideval (Head of Credit & Surety and Political Risks Miller Europe), who commented, “As the surety market continues to evolve, Elisabeth and Toni will be excellent additions to the team as we further build on our Credit, Surety and Political Risk offering.
“Working in collaboration with our well-established Surety team in London, we are excited to expand the range of solutions and services we can provide to clients in the European market, offering a valuable alternative to bank guarantees.
Lambertin and Beltzer added, “It is an exciting time to join Miller as they continue to expand their offering across Europe.
“Miller’s presence in the French market has gone from strength to strength, including with the recent appointment of Rodolphe Menn as Head of France.
“We very much look forward to collaborating with teams locally and internationally, developing close synergies with surety practices, meeting partners and leveraging Miller’s capabilities to the benefit of clients.”
