LONDON, June 22,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Markel International, a
subsidiary of Markel Corporation (NYSE: MKL), has hired
Jeannie Schreiner as a senior
underwriter for marine and energy (M&E) liability. This latest
move, coupled with the recent restructure to Markel's liability
team, will allow the organisation to develop its service offerings
for clients and drive further investment in its liability
portfolio.
Reporting to Louise Foley, senior
underwriter and head of M&E liability at Markel International,
Schreiner will be based in the M&E team, where she will
underwrite a full-suite of M&E liability products – alongside
Abigail Piper, senior underwriter,
and Kathryn Grahame, underwriter.
Schreiner's experience and expertise will enable her to build
strong broker relationships and benefit the team, particularly the
junior underwriters, with training and development.
Previously, Schreiner spent 10 years at Talbot Underwriting
Services, starting as a claims handler for M&E liability,
before progressing to the role of marine liability underwriting
assistant and class underwriter, respectively. Schreiner is a
marine under 35 representative for the Lloyd's Market Association's
(LMA) Joint Liability Committee and will retain this position as
she takes on her new role.
"Markel's liability team, led by Andrew
Carter, has achieved significant growth in gross written
premium (GWP) and expertise, as well as an increased leadership
profile over the last five years," said Foley. "With Jeannie
onboard, she will play a crucial part in our plans by using her
skills to enhance the M&E liability team's underwriting
expertise, so that we can continue focusing on service levels for
brokers and clients and portfolio management."
She added: "Now that we are back in the office, in Lloyd's, and
travelling once again, it is a priority of ours to ensure service
levels are kept to a high standard, while maintaining our
leadership position in the M&E liability market."
