Alesco adds top industry broker to 50-strong construction team
Alesco Risk Management Services (Alesco) — the specialist insurance and risk management broker – today announces the appointment of Martin Hiller as chairman of the business’ UK construction team. Hiller will join Alesco later this year and will report to John Thompson, managing director of construction.
Hiller brings decades of construction experience to Alesco. He joins from Willis Towers Watson where he was head of international construction within its corporate risk and broking unit. He spent 10 years at JLT as head of specialty and prior to that was a founder and managing director of JLT’s construction division.
Thompson said: “I am delighted that we are welcoming an industry leader of Martin’s calibre to the team. Alesco has built one of the fastest growing London construction brokers over the last three years, during which time we have assembled a c.50-strong team of specialists. We are attracting the industry’s strongest talent and, as a market leader in construction, Martin will be at home and influential among our expanding team of first class practitioners.”
Hiller said: “The growth of the Alesco construction practice is impressive, as is the strong leadership and focus the business has on its people and client delivery. These factors, along with the added appeal of being a broker run by brokers, were all critical in my decision to join the team. I look forward to supporting John to build out the business’ UK capability and embracing Alesco’s entrepreneurial culture as we work with the rest of the team to establish the market’s leading construction proposition.”
