MS Amlin, the global reinsurer, has appointed Charles Goldie as chief underwriting officer, subject to regulatory approval.
Goldie will take up the role early in Q1 2021, and will report to Chris Beazley, CEO of MS Amlin.
He brings more than 30 years of industry experience to MS Amlin, most recently serving as CEO of P&C for PartnerRe.
During his 16-year tenure at PartnerRe, Goldie held a number of broad and advancing positions within the organisation, including deputy CEO, PartnerRe Global and CEO, PartnerRe Specialty Lines.
Goldie started his career in actuarial and consulting roles before joining PartnerRe in 2002.
Chris Hayward, who has been acting as interim chief underwriting officer since September 2020, will remain with the business returning to his previous role as chief underwriting officer of MS Amlin’s Bermuda branch.
Commenting on Goldie’s appointment, Beazley said: “I am delighted to welcome Goldie to MS Amlin as chief underwriting officer. Goldie brings a wealth of experience and sector expertise to the business, alongside a strong track record of holding leadership positions within large, diverse, multi-jurisdictional businesses.”
He continues: “His insight and experience of managing underwriting portfolios in our key markets will be critical for our next stage of growth. I am confident he will prove an invaluable addition to the MS Amlin leadership team.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Hayward, for his strong leadership over the past few months. We are grateful for his ongoing significant contribution and continued commitment as he supports Goldie in assuming his new role,” Beazley concluded.
