Alesco bolsters upstream offering with senior technical hire
Alesco Risk Management Services (Alesco) – the specialist insurance and risk management broker – today announces the appointment of Steve Dewey as Executive Partner in its energy division.
Steve will join the business early next year and focus on upstream business, primarily in the US, reporting to Simon Clarkson, Managing Partner, Energy. His appointment will further enhance the team’s capabilities by providing a strong technical resource with a wealth of experience in account executive roles and production support, both in the US and worldwide.
Bringing decades of specialist energy expertise in the wholesale broker space, Steve will join Alesco after 23 years at Miller. While there, he held increasingly senior roles and left as Partner, responsible for the Upstream Technical team. During this period, Steve specialised primarily in the production of US energy-related business, took a lead role in the strategy and placement of major oil companies and drilling contractor insurances and brought his in-depth knowledge of energy coverages to bear on the management of many high profile accounts. Prior to his time at Miller, Steve worked for Newman Martin and Buchan Limited where he was responsible for quoting and placing oil company business.
Simon Clarkson said: “Upstream energy remains a key class for us. We’re committed to growing our US book and bringing in top-class, experienced individuals across the business in order to deliver innovative solutions that meet changing client needs. Hiring a producer and broker of Steve’s skill and expertise with such a respected reputation will undoubtedly further enhance our technical offering to clients worldwide and is a core part of our strategy.
“In addition to Steve’s capability as a broker, I have long admired his passion for and ability to develop next generation talent, enabling both the individuals and the business to benefit from his wealth of experience. I am delighted to welcome him to the team.”
