Lucy Clarke Appointed Global CEO of JLT Specialty
Jardine Lloyd Thompson Group plc ('JLT' or 'the Group'), one of
the world's leading providers of insurance, reinsurance, and
employee benefits related advice, brokerage, and associated
services, announces the appointment of Lucy Clarke as Chief
Executive of the Group's worldwide insurance broking activities,
with the title Global CEO of JLT Specialty. The remit of this new
role covers all the Group's business activities except reinsurance
broking and Employee Benefits and reports to the Group CEO, Dominic
Burke. Lucy will take up her new role from the beginning of April
2018.
The creation of this new position reflects the increasing scale
and importance of JLT's Specialty insurance business, which
contributed some GBP765m of annual revenues to the Group in 2016.
The appointment follows the re-examination of the Group's strategy,
completed in 2017, one conclusion of which was to reaffirm just how
important collaboration across divisions, regions and industry
practices is as a differentiator for JLT. Simplifying the structure
of the Group's operations and management by bringing together all
insurance broking activities under the JLT Specialty banner will
better equip the Group to realise its mission to become the leading
global specialist risk adviser and broker.
Dominic Burke, JLT Group Chief Executive, said: 'I am delighted
that Lucy has agreed to take on this responsibility, which is so
important to the continuing success of the JLT Group. Lucy is
recognised throughout JLT, among our clients and in the worldwide
specialty insurance marketplace as unequalled in her commitment to
clients' interests and to the people who work at JLT. I have every
confidence that Lucy's leadership of JLT's global Specialty
businesses will drive the growth of our market share and support
our strategy to become the leading global specialist risk adviser
and broker.'
Lucy Clarke said: 'I'm very happy to be taking on this new role
at JLT. We are united in our determination to ensure that our
clients are getting the very best from JLT, and the new structure
is a reflection of that commitment. I'm really proud of the
incredible talent and collective aspiration of JLT people around
the world, look forward to working more closely with my colleagues
across JLT, and am very excited about our prospects for even
greater success in 2018 and beyond.'
