Jon’s background in building successful MGAs, coupled with his wealth of knowledge and stellar market reputation, makes him an asset to our future partners as well as an invaluable addition to Beat. I look forward to working with him as we replicate our success in both the UK and Bermuda and grow our long-term U.S. MGA portfolio.”

Beat has an unrivalled model and platform and is primed to take full advantage of the burgeoning opportunities in the U.S. market. I am delighted to be joining the Beat team to identify key talent, recruit top-tier underwriters and their teams and to foster innovative businesses.”
