Martin Joyce will manage DUAL Corporate Risks’ National Business Unit in Manchester.
Martin’s promotion will follow the departure of Fiona Saggers who is leaving the company to pursue a writing career. He is promoted from the position of Regional Development Manager.
Martin will pick up all management responsibilities for the branch and will hold full regional underwriting authority to write D&O, EPL, Crime and Pension Trustee Business. Martin began his role on 1 July and will report to senior management at the DUAL Corporate Risks head office in London.
Russell Kilpatrick, Executive Chairman of DUAL Corporate Risks, said: “We are very pleased to be continuing the growth of the National Business Unit with Martin at the helm. Martin is an experienced, respected and dynamic professional and we could not have hoped for a better person to step into this role.
“Martin’s promotion and the appointment of new talent in the NBU demonstrate the strength in depth we now enjoy, which is particularly important as we grow in diverse commercial insurance lines such as D&O, PI for the IT sector, Employment Practices Liability and Investor Protection.”
Russell added: “At the same time, we are very sorry to bid farewell to Fiona and we wish her every success with her future endeavours. Her leadership and contribution as manager of the National Business Unit has been greatly admired and provides us with a solid platform for continued growth.”
Before joining DUAL Corporate Risks in March 2007, Martin spent four years at Allianz as a business developer and four years at AIG. Martin has also been a commercial broker with Aon, also in Manchester.
