TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Baldwin Group announced today three executive appointments to help lead the MGA (managing general agent) and non-MGA segments within the Company’s Underwriting, Capacity, and Technology Solutions (“UCTS”) Operating Group as it continues to grow and expand.
Amy Carlisle, Head of Product Management, Millennial Specialty Insurance, LLC (“MSI”), an indirect subsidiary of The Baldwin Group, has been named President of MGA Solutions. Austin Rock, Executive Director of Strategy and Innovation, The Baldwin Group, has been named President of Capacity Solutions. Both promotions are effective immediately. Carlisle and Rock will continue to report to Jim Roche, President, The Baldwin Group and CEO, Underwriting, Capacity, and Technology Operations. In addition, Ryan Fauls has joined The Baldwin Group as the Chief Technology Officer of UCTS, effective immediately. Fauls will report to Roche.
“With the appointment of these key leadership roles, we are strategically positioning ourselves to drive innovation and growth through the next chapter of our expansion,” Roche said. “We are confident that their visionary leadership and extensive experience will ensure that we continue to thrive and achieve our ambitious goals, while remaining a client-driven, entrepreneurial organization.”
Carlisle joined MSI two years ago as the Head of Product Management, overseeing the management, development, and optimization of the MGA insurance product suite and actuarial function. In her new role as President of MGA Solutions, Carlisle will lead the MGA organization to support expansion into new MGA businesses, paired with continued focus on underwriting discipline and exposure management. Prior to joining MSI, Carlisle was a senior leader at Liberty Mutual Insurance, where she served in leadership positions across multiple functional areas in both personal and commercial lines divisions.
In his new role as President of Capacity Solutions, Rock will oversee UCTS’s growing suite of non-MGA, capacity-focused businesses, including the recently established reinsurance broking platform, Juniper Re, LLC and the Company’s captive management practice, while also optimizing the MGA’s relationships with insurance and reinsurance carrier partners. Previously, as the Executive Director of Strategy and Innovation, Rock has been directly involved in key initiatives associated with expanding the MGA product suite and driving the long-term growth potential of the UCTS segment. Rock joined The Baldwin Group in early 2020, shortly after the Company’s initial public offering, which he helped lead in his prior role at the investment bank J.P. Morgan.
As the Chief Technology Officer, Fauls will be responsible for developing and implementing UCTS’s technology strategy. He will oversee all aspects of engineering, digital products, and technological innovations and operations to help drive UCTS’s growth. Before joining The Baldwin Group, Fauls served as the Chief Technology Officer and the Chief Information Officer across various sectors, including financial services and travel management.
