Insurance broker Marsh announced two senior appointments within Marsh JLT Specialty’s Renewable Energy team, as part of its continued expansion in the global renewable energy sector.
Joanne Silberberg has been appointed as Canadian Renewable Energy leader. Silberberg joined Marsh in 2004 as part of the graduate program, and since then has worked in a number of specialist roles within Australia, primarily focused on the Energy & Power industry.
In January, she relocated to Calgary to be part of the leading Energy & Power team. In this newly created role, Silberberg will report to Richard Doherty, head of Marsh JLT Specialty, Canada, and Amy Barnes, Energy & Power Practice leader, U.S. and Canada.
Dan Gumsley joins Marsh as an account manager in the Renewable Energy team and will focus on the growing offshore wind market in the UK. Gumsley has over 20 years insurance experience, both as a broker and an in-house insurance manager, and joins the business from one of Europe’s leading offshore wind developers.
Based in London, Gumsley will report to Hamish Roberts, Power leader.
“As the world begins to emerge from lockdown restrictions, many countries are considering how, as a consequence of the pandemic, they may accelerate their decarbonization programs to take advantage of the recent lower demand for traditional power sources and petroleum,” said Andrew George, global head of Energy & Power, Marsh JLT Specialty.
“Depending on the location, the renewable energy sector can offer countries flexible, reliable, and proven technologies – including solar, onshore wind, offshore wind, bio-mass, hydro and battery power,” he continued.
“Working as part of our global Renewable Energy team, Joanne and Dan will play key roles in delivering the services and solutions to support our energy clients in Canada and the UK as they transition towards more sustainable and carbon-neutral futures,” George said.
