MGA promotes for new business development and relationship director

Prestige Underwriting has promoted Tim Baxter to the role of business development and relationship director.

In his new role, Baxter will lead the broker engagement and distribution strategy across the UK and Ireland.

He will aim to deepen partnerships, enhance the broker experience and support sustainable, profitable growth.

Baxter said: “I’m excited to take on this position and build on the strong foundations we’ve created with our partners.

”My focus is to expand and develop our collaborative relationships with brokers, enhance the broker experience and broaden both the distribution and geographical reach of Prestige Underwriting products.

”Working closely with our underwriting and operational teams, we’ll make it even easier for brokers to place complex and non-standard risks confidently.”

Experience

Baxter joined Prestige Underwriting in 2014 and brings more than 25 years’ insurance experience spanning placement, claims and distribution.

He was most recently head of broker development, a role he held for nearly seven years.

Alison Williams, managing director at Prestige Underwriting, said: ”Baxter’s promotion is richly deserved. He has made a significant impact on our business, from strengthening our market presence to sharpening how we partner with brokers across regions and product lines.

”With FCA approval now confirmed, I’m delighted to congratulate Baxter on his appointment. He will be instrumental in advancing our growth strategy and delivering even more value for our broker community across GB, NI and the Republic of Ireland.”
