Hiscox Re & ILS Promotes Dolphin to Director of Underwriting, Lee to COO

Specialist Bermuda-based insurer Hiscox announced two new appointments within Hiscox Re & ILS.

Andrew Dolphin has been appointed director of Underwriting – London, replacing Megan McConnell who is relocating to Manhattan to take on the role of chief underwriting officer for Hiscox USA. Dolphin’s appointment is subject to board and regulatory approval.

Since joining Hiscox in 2000, Dolphin has been a key part of the evolution of Hiscox Re & ILS from a London-based, syndicate-focused business, to the multi-capital diverse product organization it is today, said Hiscox in a statement.

In September 2018, Dolphin was appointed chief operating officer for Hiscox Re & ILS and became a member of the executive team. Dolphin will commence his new role in October and will continue to be based in London.

Following Dolphin’s appointment, Chris Lee has been promoted to chief operating officer for Hiscox Re & ILS and will join the Hiscox Re & ILS executive.

Lee joined Hiscox in March 2019 as head of Insight, where he was responsible for spearheading the company’s data and insights strategy. Prior to this, Lee was COO at Lief and Dev BootCamp, technology platform organizations enabling alternative education and finance solutions. Lee will also commence his new role in October and will continue to be based in Bermuda.
