Citynet Insurance Brokers has appointed former James Hallam account director Carl Salt as head of its real estate division.

With more than 35 years of experience and knowledge in property underwriting and real estate broking, Salt will be responsible for developing Citynet’s real estate division in both the UK and Ireland. The latest addition to Citynet’s property team has also held senior management positions at insurance firms, including Tokio Marine Kiln where he was European line of business head for property underwriting.

“I am delighted to be taking on this new role and look forward to working with our retail brokers to continue to enhance the customer experience and develop further our client offering,” commented Salt.

Chief executive Richard Scott said: “Citynet Insurance Brokers has an excellent real estate proposition that’s proving to be very successful.” He believes Citynet’s retail brokers will benefit from Salt’s impressive knowledge and experience.

The independent wholesale Lloyd’s broker specialises in the placement of commercial business into the UK and Irish markets on behalf of UK and Irish intermediaries. Covers include property, liability, professional indemnity, and motor fleet.
