James Irvine has been named chief underwriting officer for Lancashire Insurance Co. Ltd. (LICL) in Bermuda.

Lanchashire Holdings Ltd. (LHL) also announced the appointment of Ben Readdy as the group chief actuary beginning in January, 2019.

Irvine and Readdy replace Sylvain Perrier, who has held the positions of chief underwriting officer for LICL and group chief actuary for LHL since March 2013 and March 2006 respectively. Perrier has been with the group since its inception and was instrumental in building the group’s actuarial function. Perrier will continue to work as the group chief actuary until January 2019, and then will serve in a strategic consultancy role from that date.

Irvine joined Lancashire in April 2010 and is currently LICL’s deputy chief underwriting officer in Bermuda with responsibility for LICL’s property reinsurance portfolio. In his new role as chief underwriting officer for LICL, he will report to LHL’s Chief Underwriting Officer Paul Gregory.

Readdy joined Lancashire in June 2010 and is currently deputy group chief actuary.
