Gallagher deepens UK public sector & education expertise in North East with hire of industry specialist Jayne Pinnell
Gallagher has further invested in its UK-wide public sector and education capabilities with the appointment of Jayne Pinnell. Pinnell joins as Client Director for the North East in Gallagher’s specialist UK Public Sector & Education Practice.
In this newly created role, Pinnell will provide local support for regional clients as the practice looks to build on its success in the rest of the UK and accelerate its growth aspirations in the North East of England. Bringing more than 25 years’ experience, she will focus on enabling public sector and education clients in their development of effective risk financing strategies and support the compliant procurement of insurance coverage appropriate to the sector’s unique challenges and complexities.
With extensive broking and underwriting experience, Pinnell joins from broker Marsh where she was most recently Head of Social Housing within its public sector team. Previously, she was responsible for large portfolios of public sector and education clients as Development Underwriter at Travelers insurance company for the North East.
Tim Devine, Managing Director of UK Public Sector & Education, said: “Jayne is a fantastic addition to our specialist team as we look to further strengthen our capabilities in key geographies and provide excellent on-the-ground support for clients. Her technical expertise, in-depth sector knowledge and track record of delivering effective valued solutions will enable us to build out our robust client-focused proposition and become the go-to broker of choice in the sector and each region.”
