Mr Joseph has over forty years’ experience as an actuary in the global insurance and reinsurance industry. Having begun his career at Legal & General, he held a number of senior actuarial roles in the industry including as a partner and global chief actuary within PwC. Mr Joseph joined the board of XL Catlin (now AXA XL) as an independent non-executive director serving in a variety of committee roles within the AXA XL group including as Chair of the audit committees, and most recently, as Chair of XL Insurance Company SE.  Mr Joseph is also a partner with Vario Partners LLP, which offers consultancy services within the insurance and reinsurance third party capital sector.

“We are delighted to welcome Bryan to the Lancashire Group as a Non-Executive Director. Bryan has extensive experience as an actuary within the international insurance industry and a proven track record as a director. Bryan will be an excellent fit for the Group, bringing significant additional expertise to the Board to help us deliver on our strategic ambitions.    

I would also like to thank Simon for his many years of valuable and insightful service to our Board and the business. We wish him well for the future.”
