Millhouse Facilities and Gresham Intermediaries have merged to form Gresham Insurance Brokers.

The new company will combine Millhouse's agency operation and Gresham's Lloyd's and London Market contacts.

New managing director John Collier will run the company from Gresham's City office, supported by chairman Richard Wells and directors Andrew Anthony and Kevin Flynn.

Anthony and Flynn only took over Gresham Intermediaries in October, after an MBO from its US parent company.

Chris Collier will continue as a director, handling the Millhouse agency and schemes business from Millhouse's Dartford headquarters.

Kevin Hayman has been appointed financial director.

Millhouse was a wholesale broker, with delegated authority to write UK commercial and household business.

It has more than 700 intermediaries in its agency base.
