- Senior hire enhances the Company’s strategic capabilities -
MS Amlin Underwriting Limited (MS AUL), the Lloyd’s global (re)insurer, today announces the appointment of Rob Margetts. Rob will join MS AUL in the coming months, and will report to Martyn Rodden, Director of Strategy & Transformation.
In his new role, Rob will help develop and implement a range of strategic initiatives identified by the business, following a strategic review by MS AUL’s executive team in 2021. This includes plans across current and legacy portfolios, as well as supporting MS AUL’s longer-term strategic ambitions, working with parent company Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance (MSI) and US-based sister company MS Amlin Distribution Holdings.
He brings more than two decades of industry experience in the (re)insurance market and joins from legacy specialist, Compre, where he has spent six years. He started at Compre as the Head of M&A, responsible for executing all transactions, before becoming Head of Lloyd’s in 2020, overseeing all operational aspects of the relationships with their Managing Agent and Lloyd’s of London, as well as leading the development of new business opportunities.
Prior to Compre, Rob held several roles at Aviva, both within its UK General Insurance business as the Head of Strategic Capital Management and Head of Capital Management, with Aviva Group. Rob also spent a decade in the (re)insurance consulting space, including eight years at KPMG.
Martyn Rodden, Director of Strategy & Transformation, MS AUL, said: “I am delighted Rob has chosen to join the Strategy & Transformation team at MS AUL. As recently confirmed, our ambitions are focussed on a number of fronts, as we continue on our journey to consistently deliver a profit. Rob’s role will place him at the heart of this strategy, utilising his extensive experience, contacts and relationship building capabilities to support MS Amlin as it identifies the most valuable opportunities, as well as ensuring we take the advantage, to secure new revenue streams and distribution access.”
