Haydn is part of the Client Development team. Although he has several UK-based re/insurers as clients, at JBA Risk Management, his focus is mainly to develop business from Africa, especially South Africa, and the Middle East.
With over 30 years in the re/insurance industry, Haydn started at Mercantile & General Re (now Swiss Re). From facultative and treaty reinsurance underwriting to direct marketing and management, his role included everything. Later, he became the Managing Director of Swiss Re, during which he ran a subsidiary of Pinnacle Insurance PLC in South Africa, taking the start-up to an R100 million income company.
Having moved to the UK in 2008, he worked with Hollard, Aon, Gallaghers and Qdos in various development roles before joining JBA in early 2022.
