Specialist lines-focused Managing General Agent Occam Underwriting has hired Oliver Litterick as Director and Head of Low Carbon Energy.
He will lead and build a new low carbon energy re/insurance business that will seize upon opportunities arising from the continuing development of energy through renewable sources.
Litterick has close to 15 years’ experience in the renewables market and he joins from Chaucer, where he was an underwriter.
He started his career as a broker with Windsor before it became part of Howden, RKH Specialty, and China Re Syndicate 2088 – where he started and grew their renewables portfolio – before it became part of Chaucer Syndicates in 2019.
“We are thrilled that Oliver is joining Occam as we begin to build out a team to take advantage of the many growth opportunities that are rapidly emerging in the low carbon energy economy as ESG concerns move to the top of companies’ agendas all around the world,” said Occam Chief Executive Officer Mark Fisher.
“We intend to create a market-leading clean energy (re)insurance practice that is built on deep industry expertise and underwriting excellence.
“Oliver was our number one candidate to lead this new line of business and it is a real demonstration of our intent to attract someone of his calibre and experience to lead and grow his own team at Occam.”
