This week Envest celebrated the arrival of Head of Carrier Management, Holly Scott. Holly will be working closely with Head of Broking Craig Robson on strategic partnerships and industry alignment.

Holly has worked in numerous roles in Allianz and Vero, and recently with Gallagher Re in London and Australia.

Envest currently controls $1.7bn in gross written premium (GWP) in Australia and is also well positioned to take advantage of acquisition opportunities in the Australian General Insurance distribution sector.

“We’re seeing abundant opportunity to partner with insurers and talented entrepreneurs to grow their businesses. This new team better matches our internal resources to our aspirations,” David said.

David Ball joined Envest in March from the Macquarie Group, with a remit to work with new and existing partners to drive value and growth.

Joining David on the Envest M&A team is:

Jessica Tanna – M&A Legal Counsel
