About Jamie

I joined Hiscox in 2021 on the Retail Graduate Scheme after reading Geography at the University of Exeter. During the 18 months on the scheme, I completed secondments in London PSC, London Market Casualty and European Change. Each of these secondments provided insight into the Retail and London Market divisions at Hiscox, with experience gained in underwriting and strategy across numerous product lines.

I’ve always had a keen interest in company strategy, financial analysis and corporate governance. The opportunity to join the D&O team in June 2023 aligned with these interests, as my current role includes underwriting publicly listed and internationally operating companies across various industry sectors.

Outside of work, I am a keen sports enthusiast, with my main sport being Rugby and team being Harlequins. More recently, I have hung-up the boots and taken-up running and padel - there is still a lot of practice to be done…
