Head of Digital Underwriting

Having started my career in underwriting I grew a passion for enhancing the way we do business in the (re)insurance industry by leveraging innovation and technology. Convex shares this vision and Digital Underwriting provides the opportunity and capabilities to trade digitally for all of our insurance product lines.

When I was asked to join the team on this exciting new venture it was an easy yes and I’m proud to have helped shape the proposition from the beginning. The Digital Underwriting team pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality products to market in partnership with our brokers and clients and our team has some of the most brilliant minds from specialty, SME and personal lines insurance as well as expertise from outside of the insurance industry from a diverse range of backgrounds.

The market is going through an exciting digital evolution and Convex is ready for the future of digital underwriting with a leading team and capabilities for algorithmic trading, augmented underwriting and active portfolio management. It’s been an exciting journey so far, and there is still so much to come.
