Marsh announces the appointment of Amy Barnes as a Development Executive in its Aberdeen office. Ms Barnes will focus on driving business development in the independent oil and gas sector in Scotland and supporting local service delivery for Marsh’s London-based Energy Practice clients.
Ms Barnes has worked for Marsh’s Energy Practice for eight years, specialising in risk financing for super-major and independent oil and gas companies.
Commenting on Ms Barnes’ appointment, Ron Thomson, head of Marsh’s Aberdeen office, said: “With her incisive understanding of the risk and insurance issues that concern our clients the most, Amy will be a strong asset to our team. The global economic downturn has touched all parts of the global oil and gas industry and Aberdeen has not been immune to its effects. I look forward to working with Amy as she delivers innovative solutions that add value to our clients and help them to manage through the downturn.”
Ms Barnes said: “By putting risk management at the centre of all that they do, oil and gas firms can reduce uncertainty and obtain a clearer picture of consequences of their investment and other business decisions. By having a more complete picture of the risks facing their organisations, oil and gas companies can gain a stronger competitive footing that will be key to success as the economy recovers.”
