Today marks Timothy Bowling’s first day as head of claims management at third-party managing agent Asta.

“After over five years at the LMA, I’m delighted to confirm I will be joining Asta on Monday, April 25, as head of claims management,” announced the former Lloyd’s Market Association senior executive for claims, on LinkedIn.

“Really looking forward to the new challenge. I hear a lot of good things about Asta too and am feeling confident I have made a good decision to move onwards.”

Bowling’s shift comes hot on the heels of Janine Powell’s appointment as incoming LMA claims director. Joining the trade body later this year from Lloyd’s, Powell replaces Aspen Insurance Group’s Lee Elliston, who left the LMA at the end of 2021.

Meanwhile Bowling brings experience from the likes of Towergate and RSA.
