McGill and Partners expands into the Nordics with opening of Swedish office
McGill and Partners announces that it will be expanding into the Nordics with the opening of a new branch office in Sweden subject to applicable approvals.
This expansion into the Nordics will strengthen McGill and Partners’ extensive broking expertise across its key specialties and further enable the firm to deliver cutting-edge solutions to their global clients and trading partners. The new branch will be part of the firm’s European entity. Initial hires to the Swedish branch will include Jon Petursson and Wilhelm Westerstad.
Jon and Wilhelm will each join from WTW, where they have spent over two decades, and have been instrumental in developing a diverse portfolio of specialty- focussed business in the Nordics and beyond. They will join McGill and Partners once their existing contractual obligations are fulfilled.
Stephen Cross, CEO of McGill and Partners Europe, said: “We are laser-focused on attracting incredible talent in markets where there is untapped potential, and we’re excited to be expanding our presence and capabilities in Europe with the opening of a Swedish office. With Jon and Wilhelm joining the team we will be able to draw on their deep expertise to provide market-leading solutions for our clients and trading partners in the region, whilst we continue to attract like-minded individuals to our rapidly expanding firm.”
