Amwins International Underwriting, the London-based underwriting arm of global speciality distributor Amwins, has announced the appointment of Keith Trivitt as underwriting director for its cross-class portfolio solution.
The offering, known as Amwins Amplify, offers a suite of products available exclusively through Amwins Global Risks brokers.
Trivitt will officially join Amwins in September. He previously worked at Axis Capital, where he was responsible for portfolio solutions. He brings significant experience, having worked across both carrier and distributor roles, which is expected to be invaluable in further developing Amwins’ managing general agent (MGA) operations.
In his new role, Trivitt will work to expand Amplify’s underwriting capabilities and contribute to the growth of its best-in-class tracker facility.
His appointment follows other strategic hires in the London team, including Simon Jackson as managing director in November 2023, and the company’s recent acquisition of a box at Lloyd’s earlier this year.
Simon Jackson, managing director at Amwins International Underwriting, expressed his excitement over the new hire. “We’re thrilled to have Keith join Amplify. With his proven experience of portfolio solutions, his hire is an example of our commitment and desire to attract underwriting talent to the London based team. Keith will continue to build upon Amplify’s underwriting offering and work to further expand the best-in-class tracker facility.”
Trivitt also commented on his new role. “I’m excited to find new ways to deliver capacity across several lines of business and enhancing our distribution and ability to access capacity. The portfolio solutions market is rapidly evolving, and I look forward to Amplify playing a key role in this space.”
This appointment highlights Amwins’ continued investment in its underwriting team and the strategic growth of its London-based operations.
