Global insurer and reinsurer MS Amlin has announced the appointment of Sarah Wilson as Head of Outwards Reinsurance.
In her new role, Wilson will lead the strategic direction and day-to-day management of the Outwards Reinsurance function. She will oversee the design and placement of MS Amlin’s reinsurance programmes, portfolio optimisation, and counterparty engagement across the Group’s global platforms. Working closely with underwriting teams in London, Dubai, and Singapore, she will ensure the reinsurance strategy remains aligned with MS Amlin’s risk appetite, capital objectives, and long-term profitability.
Wilson will report to Martin Burke, Chief Underwriting Officer at MS Amlin.
She brings more than two decades of industry experience. She joined MS Amlin in September 2022 as Outwards Reinsurance Department Manager before being promoted to Co-Lead of the Outwards Reinsurance function in March 2024.
Prior to joining MS Amlin, Wilson spent two decades at Tokio Marine Kiln, where she worked within the treaty underwriting team, progressing to Reinsurance Inwards Treaty Department Manager in 2017.
Burke commented, “Sarah’s promotion reflects both her leadership capabilities and MS Amlin’s commitment to creating an environment where talent can develop and thrive. She has played a central role in building a highly capable Outwards Reinsurance team. As the market moves on from the January 1 renewals, experienced leaders who understand both the technical and people dimensions of reinsurance are critical, and Sarah is exceptionally well placed to lead the function into 2026.”
Wilson said, “I am excited to step into this role as we begin 2026. As the market continues to navigate geopolitical volatility and structural change, disciplined reinsurance strategy, strong partnerships, and a clear focus on risk are more important than ever. I look forward to continuing to work closely with my team and the entire business to support MS Amlin’s underwriting ambitions in the year ahead.”
