She brings with her extensive experience managing complex projects and portfolios, working with global clients across multiple territories and sectors, building robust relationships with insurers – and inspiring large teams, the company noted.
Expressing his enthusiasm for Horler’s arrival, Andrew Wallin, CEO of Ardonagh Specialty, remarked, “Sarah’s fantastic reputation precedes her, and I feel incredibly lucky to have her on board to help steer Price Forbes into the future. If we’re going to build on our own reputation, and continue to place complex risks for our clients, empower the next generation of brokers and drive progress across the industry – we need to harness the skills of the very best leaders. Sarah definitely fits that description, and I’m looking forward to having her solutions-orientated drive, creativity and wisdom behind our sails.”
