INSURANCE broker and risk adviser Marsh has made a total of four appointments to its offices in Edinburgh and Aberdeen, saying it is an "exciting time" for the company in Scotland.
It follows its purchase in January of Aberdeen-based independent broker Central Insurance Services in a deal thought to be worth at least £10 million. Bruce Lees is joining its Edinburgh office from Aon as head of its national corporate practice, which focuses on the risk and insurance requirements of mid-market and upper SMEs.
Marsh said Mr Lees will drive its growth in this expanding sector, bringing expertise in "broking for large businesses, a global understanding of insurance markets, and a strong appreciation of the risks faced by businesses looking to expand overseas". Also joining the Edinburgh office, from Willis, is Tom Murphy as client executive.
Boosting the ranks at its Aberdeen office are Sonny Still as a client executive, and Donna Main as client adviser. Both come from Willis in Aberdeen, bringing in-depth experience of the oil and gas services sector.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
