As it aims to expand its agriculture offering and boost its profile in the sector, Bluefin Underwriting has appointed Sarah Robinson as agriculture trading and development manager. She arrives from Rural Insurance.

Robinson’s appointment follows the launch of two new agricultural products by Bluefin Underwriting (as we reported here) and strengthens the recently formed farm underwriting team. Robinson has significant experience in farm insurance having previously worked with Rural Insurance and NIG Farm Web.

Paul Drake, Head of Bluefin Underwriting, commented: “Sarah has a proven track record of broker development and relationship management and will play a significant role in delivering our agriculture strategy and planned growth. We are delighted that she has joined us and excited by what she will contribute. We now have a really strong farm underwriting team to complement our excellent product offering.”

Sarah commented: “I am passionate about the agriculture industry, having spent 10 years working with farmers and their brokers to understand the importance of a strong product offering at a sensible, competitive price.

Bluefin Underwriting are on an exciting journey that I very much want to be part of, as their offering combines all of the qualities needed in this marketplace. I can’t wait to get started.”

Sarah is joining recent specialist agriculture hires, Kyle Lomas and Jodie Gibbons and started on August 30.
