ERS, the largest specialist motor insurance syndicate in Lloyd’s of London, is pleased to announce the appointment of Chris Wilson as head of fleet underwriting, effective immediately.
The move sees Chris promoted from the role of senior underwriter within ERS’s motor fleet division, a role he’s held since joining the company in 2014. Prior to ERS Chris spent many years at Aviva, where he worked in a variety of motor underwriting roles, rising to senior underwriter across its fleet portfolio.
Chris will lead a team of expert underwriters in the delivery of policies for a range of complex and non-standard risks across small and larger fleets, including bus, coach, taxi and specialist haulage. He will also have responsibility for P&L. Based at ERS’s London offices Chris will report to director of underwriting, Gina Butterworth.
Gina Butterworth commented: “Chris has a proven track record in the design and rating of polices for the complex demands of the fleet market. He has worked very effectively with other business functions such as pricing, claims, operations and broker development to leverage the specific capabilities we have to deliver first-class propositions to market. His technical knowledge and understanding of this unquestionably challenging sector make Chris the perfect candidate to take our fleet offering forward.”
