Louise Jarvis has been promoted to the position of deputy director of underwriting at Bermudian-based Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited.

Fidelis said she will take on the new position in addition to her current role of group head of contract wordings.

Ms Jarvis joined Fidelis in 2017 as senior wordings specialist and was promoted to group head of contract wordings in 2019 where she is responsible for overseeing all risk-related contracts.

In her role as deputy director of underwriting, the company said, Ms Jarvis will support the group director of underwriting to ensure underwriting excellence through capture and use of data, superior systems, process and reporting.

Charles Mathias, group director of underwriting, said: “Louise has done a great job in building a contract wordings team that really adds value to our underwriting process.

“We’re delighted that she will now bring her rigour and common sense to bear on a wider range of issues as we continue to build market-leading underwriting processes and systems.”
