David Nolan Appointed to Long-Term Leadership Role at JW Seagon

We’re pleased to formally announce that David Nolan, who joined us just over a year ago to establish and lead our Specialty Risks business, has accepted a long-term leadership position within the JW Seagon Group.

In a relatively short time, David has made strong headway in developing this complex portfolio. He has demonstrated not only solid technical knowledge but also an exceptional networking ability, a client-first mindset, and the determination to build something lasting within JWS.

As part of our broader succession and growth planning, David will now embark on a 12-month leadership development programme under the mentorship of Jeremy Clayton, Group CEO, General Broking, with support from other senior leaders across the Group. He will also gain structured exposure to the Healthcare business, reinforcing his understanding of our full-service client proposition.

Over the next year, David will deepen his understanding in key areas including business structuring, financial management, product development, claims handling, technical underwriting, and client engagement. This will involve closer collaboration with our retail risks teams in key client and partner meetings.

This strategic appointment signals our confidence in David’s leadership future within JWS and underlines our commitment to building from within. We look forward to seeing him grow into a broader leadership role as we continue shaping the next era of JWS.

Please join us in congratulating David on this exciting next step.

David Seagon
Executive Director
