Charleston, W.Va.-based BrickStreet Mutual Insurance Co. policyholders elected a new board of directors, to begin oversight of the workers’ compensation carrier in January.
The new board includes four current board members. They are joined by W. Marston “Marty” Becker, chairman and chief executive officer of Max Capital Group and a co-founder of West Virginia Media Holdings.
Becker will serve a three-year term in a board seat that, according to BrickStreet’s bylaws, must be occupied by someone with experience as an officer or employee of a company in the insurance industry.
He joins current board members Thomas V. Flaherty, an attorney with the firm of Flaherty, Sensabaugh and Bonasso PLLC; David L. Rader, president and chief executive officer of West Virginia Mutual Insurance Co.; Stephen G. Roberts, president of the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce; and attorney Steven F. White of Steven F. White PLLC.
The current chairman of BrickStreet’s Board of Directors, H. Skip Tarasuk Jr. of Davis and Tarasuk Insurance in Fairmont, chose not to seek re-election.
Like Becker, Rader will serve a three-year term. Flaherty, Roberts and White will serve four-year terms.
