Tokio Marine Kiln (TMK) today announces the appointment of Will Green as Divisional Head of War within its Aviation underwriting team.

Having written this class for many years, this appointment marks the creation of a dedicated Aviation War team to provide clients a service-driven and creative platform for the challenges ahead.

Recent geopolitical uncertainty and an increasingly complex trading environment have heightened focus and demand for specialist war risks coverage. TMK’s Aviation War team is able to offer bespoke solutions for clients and brokers alike, backed by an outstanding claims team.

Green has an extensive experience in Aviation, with more than 13 years in insurance underwriting and broking roles. He reports to David Slevin, Head of Aviation, alongside two other senior members of the team; Lisa Leahy, Divisional Head of Airlines, who joined TMK at the end of 2022, and Graham Oddie, Divisional Head of General Aviation and Aerospace.

TMK has written Aviation business since 1976 and is the largest writer of Aviation risks in the Lloyd’s market by GWP. 

Green said: “I’m delighted to have joined TMK, a recognised leader in the Lloyd’s insurance market which offers the scale and strength that our clients need to manage the volatility we are seeing. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience to this dynamic team and building a successful and dedicated Aviation War team.”

Slevin added: “We expect uncertainty to continue over the next few decades, which highlights the need for specialist war markets. At TMK, we want to ensure that the market repositions itself and is robust enough to withstand increased geopolitical volatility. I’m delighted to welcome Will to the team.”
