Global advisory, broking, and solutions company WTW has announced the appointment of three new hires to its international casualty team based in the London office, part of the direct and facultative global line of business.
Sam Barnes (pictured above, left) joins WTW as a director, having held broking roles at JLT and Marsh. With over a decade of industry experience, Barnes will focus on large and complex risks and new business development, reporting to Ed Hunter, head of international casualty at WTW.
WTW also welcomed Camilla Chiatti (pictured above, middle), who will focus on the Latin American and European regions. Chiatti, joining from Beazley, brings technical underwriting expertise and broad experience in Western Europe. She will also report to Hunter.
Additionally, Parry Herbert (pictured above, right) returns to the team as an associate director after more than 15 years, having spent much of that time at Aon. With over 20 years of broking experience, Herbert will focus on the Canadian region, reporting to Thomas Wright, joint head of international casualty at WTW.
Commenting on the new hires, Hunter said that Sam and Camilla’s combined experience will be an asset in shaping the company’s transformation and growth ambitions.
“I’m delighted that Sam and Camilla are joining the team. Their combined wealth of experience will be a real asset and will certainly help shape our transformation and growth ambitions,” Hunter said.
Wright also noted that Parry’s experience in placing complex risks and her market profile will further strengthen the team.
“Parry’s experience in placing complex risks, as well as her stellar market profile will strengthen our team even further. We’re excited to have her on board,” Wright said.
Barnes, Chiatti, and Herbert all joined WTW in early July.
Elsewhere for the global broker, WTW has also recently introduced IMI Plus, an enhanced investment management insurance solution. IMI Plus is designed to meet the needs of various asset managers, including wealth managers, hedge funds, private equity firms, and real estate strategies.
