Strategic Risk Solutions (SRS) has appointed Richard Paris-Smith as European client service leader, effective 1 January 2022.
In his new role at the independent insurance company management firm, Paris-Smith will be responsible for a portfolio of existing clients, while working with the SRS team to support the company’s growth strategy in Guernsey and wider Europe.
He previously served as head of office for Willis Towers Watson Management Guernsey, before which he was director responsible for client development, client relationship management, captive insurance and reinsurance underwriting, and captive strategic advisory and consultancy services.
Paris-Smith will report to Peter Child, managing director, Guernsey, who joined SRS in July following the launch of the company’s Guernsey office in February.
Commenting on the new appointment, Child says: “I am thrilled that Richard has agreed to joining SRS. His personal values of integrity, dedication and professionalism — values shared by the SRS team — will ensure the delivery of the best possible service to our clients and represent a great fit with the independence and commitment to quality that set SRS apart.”
He adds: “Since officially opening our Guernsey office in February, we have attracted impressive talent who are excited about supporting the ongoing expansion of SRS’ European and global presence in captive and commercial insurance company management and insurance-linked securities.”
