Commenting on the new appointments, Robinson said: “The calibre of this management team reflects the considerable talent that our newly integrated organisations have. I am looking forward to working with the underwriting product line business heads and their extended teams to develop our portfolio and products to meet the demands of the modern insurance customer.”
