Capstone Associated Services has appointed Jeff Carlson as its head of operations.
Carlson, who has over 25 years of insurance management experience, will also replace Charles Earls as president when he steps down in 2018, after 20 years at Capstone.
The new head of operations joined Capstone in late 2017, having spent 20 years at AIG.
As head of AIG Life and Accident & Health Operations, Carlson managed large, cross-functional business operations teams in a number of locations throughout US, Philippines, and India.
Capstone are US-based captive sponsors that assist mid-market businesses in designing, forming, and operating captives.
Stewart Feldman, Capstone CEO and general counsel, commented: “With the addition of Jeff Carlson, Capstone will continue its focus on supporting closely-held, mid-market clients throughout the US from our five offices.“
He added: “His expertise enables Capstone to improve its day-to-day operations with an eye towards accelerating growth while delivering an ever-improving alternative risk management program.”
Carlson said: “From the initial captive feasibility study, through to the ongoing management of the captive, Capstone works to ensure that regulatory and tax requirements are met.”
“I’m honoured to build on Chuck Earls’ leadership over these last 20 years.”
