Head says his expertise ’made him the perfect person for this position’

Ardonagh-owned reinsurance broker Price Forbes Re has expanded its facultative team with the appointment of Oliver Waterhouse.

Waterhouse will take up the role of head of property facultative and be based in the London office.

His appointment comes after Price Forbes Re said last week (17 September 2024) that it was looking to expand its facultative team across all product lines.

Among hires it has already made include Fred Few Brown and Jonathan Gerken.

Waterhouse said: “Not only was I was compelled by the chance to lead an emergent team, but also the opportunity to join at such an exciting time in the growth journey of Price Forbes Re.

“This is a great time to be part of the Price Forbes family and the broader Ardonagh group to deliver best in class results for clients in an ever dynamic market.”

Experience

Waterhouse brings 14 years of experience in the global property market.

In his most recent role, he managed facultative operations as an executive director at Howden Tiger.

His career has also seen him work at WTW as an executive director for international property and facultative, as well as Marsh within the risk management practice.

In his new role, Waterhouse will report to Price Forbes Re’s head of facultative Nikki Melbourne.

Melbourne said: “Property facultative is a focal area for us and Waterhouse’s appointment at Price Forbes Re is a key part of the delivery of our dynamic, client-centred offering matching opportunity with innovative reinsurance solutions.

“His expertise in global property placements across a broad range of sectors and regions made him the perfect person for this position.”
