Both the partner appointments and key promotions follow the recent news of BW’s acquisition by Howden, a global insurance and employee benefits intermediary group. This move marks an exciting new phase of growth and opportunity for the business and reflects BW’s ongoing commitment to investing in its people, capabilities, and technological innovation, while demonstrating the scale and breadth of expertise within the firm.
The five new partners are Lewys Curteis, (DB Pensions Consulting), Julien Masselot (Insurance and Longevity Consulting) Nikhil Patel, (Risk Transfer Consulting), Harshil Shah, (Risk and Resilience Services) and Reena Tanna, (DC Investment Consulting).
Commenting on the news, Andrew Vaughan, Senior Partner at Barnett Waddingham said: “As we continue to grow and evolve following our recent acquisition by Howden, one thing remains constant: the core belief that our people are the key to our success and we are proud to recognise and nurture the exceptional talent at BW. The promotions highlight the strength, expertise, and influence these people have across our teams and the wider business. Supporting career progression remains a core part of our culture, and these appointments are not only a celebration of individual achievement - they also reflect the depth of talent in our teams that continue to drive our business forward on its fantastic trajectory of success.
Jacqui Derrick, Partner and Head of People, Barnett Waddingham, added: “Our commitment to celebrating excellence and enabling people to progress at every stage of their career remains at the heart of BW. Our strong training and development programs help individuals achieve their full potential, and these appointments are testament to that.”
This year also sees the retirement of seven partners, who have played their part in the ongoing success of BW over many years. They are; Julia Bassett, Sue Foley, Paul Hamilton, John Hoskin, Colin Mayger, Graeme Muir and Zoe Smith.
Andrew Vaughan added: “We extend a big thank you to the partners who are retiring for their invaluable contributions over many years and their help in building our business. We wish them every happiness in the future.”
