International insurance broker Lockton has appointed David Spence as an account executive at its Aberdeen office.
He brings over 16 years' experience in corporate insurance broking and will aim to win business in sectors including energy, transport, construction, engineering and food and drink.
An associate of the Chartered Insurance Institute, he spent 12 years at Carmichael & Partners prior to its acquisition by PIB Insurance Brokers in 2016 when he was responsible for the servicing of existing clients and business development.
Spence said: “Having worked for the majority of my working life in privately owned businesses, I was drawn to Lockton and the fact that they are uncommonly independent. This appealed to me a great deal and I believe it will enable me to flourish in the next stage of my career. Lockton’s pan-European and global operations provide an excellent way for me to grow and support my existing network.”
Steven Cox, head of office at Lockton Aberdeen, said: “It is an exciting time for David to join Lockton as we continue to grow our footprint in the north east of Scotland.
“Due to the phenomenal growth of our business to date, attracting top quality talent is a key to our investment strategy. David naturally forms part of this and we will be announcing further plans in the new year.”
