’Gallagher’s investment in its extensive office network across the UK shows a real commitment to the clients and communities it serves,’ says new appointee
Gallagher has appointed ex-Crawford leader Lisa Bartlett as the new managing director of its Birmingham office.
In her new role, Bartlett will be responsible for leading and expanding Gallagher’s Birmingham-based broking team of over 150 risk professionals.
The team assists regional businesses with risk and insurance needs and includes specialist groups that work with manufacturing, real estate and construction clients throughout the UK.
Bartlett will report to Elaine Lennox, regional managing director for the Midlands at Gallagher.
She said: “Gallagher’s investment in its extensive office network across the UK shows a real commitment to the clients and communities it serves.
“Being based alongside our regional client base gives us insight and understanding of the opportunities and challenges these firms face and how we can help support them.
“As well as the regional teams, I am looking forward to working with our specialist teams in industries such as charities, real estate and manufacturing, where I see real opportunity to grow our products and services.”
Leaving Crawford
Bartlett brings over 25 years of experience in broking and risk management to her new role, having previously held senior positions at Axa, Willis Towers Watson and Aon.
