Following the recent appointment of Senior Underwriter, Debbie Landes, in Houston, Torus has today announced that Senior Underwriter, Christopher Johnson, has also joined the company’s rapidly expanding Global Onshore Energy team, led by Philip Sexton.
Mr. Johnson, who will be based in Torus’ London office, joins Torus from ACE European Group where he was Onshore Energy Underwriter responsible for Oil, Gas and Petrochemical risks. Prior to ACE, he was Lead Facultative Property Underwriter for Swiss Re. During his 15 year career he has also worked at CNA, ARIG and AIG Europe.
Commenting on the latest addition to his team, Mr. Sexton said: “We have worked hard to build Torus’ global onshore energy capabilities and establish our services in London. With the team now in London and Houston we are truly expanding our reach into energy markets worldwide, and Christophers’ international expertise will certainly boost our global offerings.”
Mr Johnson said: “Torus has already made a big impact on the energy insurance market in its first year of operation. As it enters the second there’s a great opportunity to build on the success to date by working closely with clients and their brokers to design products that respond to the challenges of today’s energy industry.”
