Jeremy Brazil becomes Active Underwriter; William Stovin becomes Chief Administrative Officer
Markel International has announced the promotion of two members of the Board. Jeremy Brazil has been promoted from Director of London underwriting to Active Underwriter Syndicate 3000, and William Stovin has been appointed Chief Administrative Officer.
William Stovin has played an important role at Markel International since the very early days of the Markel purchase. He was involved in the reorganisation of the company immediately after the acquisition, created and ran the Special Projects division and has since assumed responsibility for the Claims, IT and Legal and Regulatory departments.
Gerry Albanese, President and COO of Markel International, said: “In every role along the way William has performed admirably. This promotion is in recognition of the excellent job he has done over the years.”
Jeremy Brazil has been the Director of London Underwriting since 2005. Prior to that he was responsible for the Professional Liability division and the co-ordination of Markel International’s reinsurance buying programme. He also played a significant role in the original research and development of our Madrid operation.
Albanese said: “Consistent underwriting profits are the key to our success; Jeremy has been instrumental in making sure we produce excellent results in London.”
