Liberty International Underwriters Europe (LIU Europe), a division of Liberty Mutual Group, has appointed Michael Hemesath to a new position of Claims Manager for Germany.
Based in LIU Europe’s Cologne office, Michael Hemesath is tasked with developing the claims function for Germany in a move which further reflects the growing volume of business now being written through LIU’s Continental European operations. He joins from another insurer where he spent eight years, the last six as Senior Claims Examiner for D&O risks.
Commenting on Michael Hemesath’s appointment, Gerard van Loon, Managing Director of LIU’s Continental European operations, said; “We have made excellent progress in growing our Continental European operations. Michael Hemesath has a strong track record in claims and I am confident that together with John McCammon, our European Claims Manager and Dr Wolfgang Weis, Executive Officer Northern Europe and Branch Manager for our Cologne office, we will continue to deliver the high quality of service that our brokers and insureds expect.”
