Barbara Bufkin is one of the founding members of Hamilton’s US leadership team, having joined the company when it was launched in 2014 as an insurtech startup, one of the first of its kind. Since then, she has been responsible for revenue generation; in the company’s first two years, Bufkin led the US platform to attain a portfolio of more than $110 million. As a member of the executive steering committee, she was very much involved in the creation of Attune, the technologyenabled platform launched by Hamilton as a joint venture with AIG and Two Sigma.

As EVP of business development, Bufkin pioneered an omnichannel distribution plan by working closely with data analytics and technology teams. She continues to serve as a strategic thought partner whose responsibilities include oversight of product and program development and implementation of minimum viable products, as well as new user interfaces for agents and underwriters. On top of these contributions, Bufkin has also had a hand in the recruitment, sponsorship and leadership of millennial talent.

As a thought leader, Bufkin regularly speaks at schools of risk management, conferences and panels on attracting and retaining millennial talent, as well as diversity and inclusion in the industry. She has been an active committee member for the IICF Global Women in Insurance Conferences since 2014 and served as chair for the SW/SE Women’s Conference. Bufkin received the Inclusion Champion Award from IICF in 2015.
