Broker BMS Taps Willis Re’s Irvan as Chief Property Officer, U.S. Reinsurance

BMS Group, the London-based specialist re/insurance broker, announced the appointment of Jeff Irvan as chief property officer, U.S. reinsurance, reporting to BMS U.S. Reinsurance President Pete Chandler.

The appointment is effective immediately.

Irvan is the latest in a series of senior hires in BMS’ U.S. reinsurance division, which include Chandler and Gregg Holtmeier, chief strategy officer, as the company continues its expansion drive.

Irvan joins BMS with more than 20 years’ experience in property reinsurance broking, having first started his career in 1997 at Sedgwick Re. In 1998, he moved to Willis Re, where he has held a number of leadership roles over the course of the past 20 years and has focused on property E&S. Most recently, he led Willis Re’s Atlanta office.

“With the recent completion of a significant long-term investment in BMS by BCI and PCP, we are well placed to take advantage of the current market to significantly expand our reinsurance practice,” said Steve Korducki, chief executive officer, U.S.
