Four brokers join to strengthen THB's London market operation

THB Group has added a new team to its wholesale broking capabilities in the London market.

The team includes Graham Lawrenson, Andy Wigg, Barry Jones and Jim Quinton, all from Heath Lambert

Lawrenson will develop THB’s London market division.

He has experience in the non-marine sector. He will have overall responsibility for the London market division of the Lloyd’s broker.

THB chief executive Frank Murphy said: “Graham and his team are well-respected in their specialist fields and represent an excellent opportunity to help THB expand further into the UK wholesale business.

"Moreover, Graham’s excellent reputation in the market means he will provide us with the same standing in the non-marine field that we currently enjoy in motor fleet under the direction of Darren Nightingale.

"This is a major initiative and we will be adding additional staff with the appropriate expertise to strengthen THB further both in the non-marine and motor fleet areas.”

Lawrenson added: "I am very pleased to have joined THB, a broker that has always centred on, and been at the forefront of, Lloyd's UK wholesaling activity.

"As a broker with a very strong London market presence, and without the conflicting retail operations in these fields as some of our competitors, I feel we provide a genuine independent platform for our broker clients throughout the UK"
