Davies, the leading specialist professional services and technology business, serving insurance and highly regulated markets, today announced that it has appointed Richard Wakeham to Head of Estates & Private Clients. In his new role, Richard will be responsible for Davies’ long-established high net worth service, supporting insurers with specialist experience for high profile customers and estates.

Wakeham joins Davies from Crawfords where he was Head of Private Clients for 5 years after joining from Agrical/McLarens, where he spent 20 years. In his new role, Richard will be working to enhance and expand Davies’ high net worth solution, with a focus on creating tailored solutions, centred around both insurer and policyholders needs.

Richard commented: “High net worth customers often have complex needs that require a fast and tailored response from an experienced loss adjuster. To exceed the policyholder’s expectations, it is essential that the adjuster has access to a range of appropriate and reliable suppliers.

“I’m very excited be joining Davies, and am looking forward to working closely with my colleagues in the months ahead to not only ensure we deliver the best possible service for our clients and their high profile customers, but also to ensure we have the most appropriate suppliers on board to deliver a service that bucks the trend of a one size fits all style and ensures that both insurer and policyholder requirements are met throughout.”
