Markel Global Insurance has announced the hiring of Alan Rodrigues as managing director in the excess liability group in New York City.

He will report to John Boylan, chief underwriting officer. “I have known Alan for years, and he has a great reputation in the marketplace,” said Boylan in a press release. “We are delighted that he has joined our team.”

Boylan said Rodrigues would lead the excess liability team’s expansion into middle to upper-middle markets. “He will be leading our excess liability expansion into the middle to upper-middle market segment, a segment presently underserved by Markel, where we see great opportunities to offer new solutions to an important customer base,” Boylan said.

Rodrigues, an attorney, has more than 35 years of experience in underwriting and management and has worked at Axis Insurance, General Star Management Company, Safeco and IRB.

Brett Glisson, president of Markel, said, “His contacts, experience and expertise will help us grow an already strong book of business  and expand our product availability to new and strategic markets.”

Markel provides excess liability, professional liability, marine, property and other insurance products.
