Norway-headquartered Skuld will see a couple of changes to its London management team come July. 

First off, chief business development officer Gregory Thomas (pictured, right) is relocating from the UK to continue driving the development of Skuld’s global commercial business from the marine insurer’s Oslo base.

Meanwhile senior vice president Matthew Burton (pictured, centre), who currently serves as head of London P&I (protection and indemnity), will remain as an SVP but in his new capacity as head of business for Skuld London.

Both changes are effective on July 01.

Commenting on the appointment, Skuld president and chief executive Ståle Hansen (pictured, left) stated: “Skuld London will continue to play an important role for our global operations, and I am very pleased to announce Matthew Burton as SVP, head of business, Skuld London.

“With Matt’s solid experience in the London and international markets and his dedication to the business, I am confident that our London office will continue providing our members and clients the high-quality service and competence they rely on.”

Wishing the duo “the best of luck,” Hansen also had nice words for Thomas.

“Greg has played a vital role in the successful growth in business in the Skuld London office,” noted the CEO. “I would therefore like to thank him for all his efforts and excellent work. I look forward to welcoming him back to our headquarters in Oslo.”
