Emergence promotes from within for COO and SME underwriting
Emergence Insurance confirmed two internal promotions, structuring its senior team around its next phase as a specialist cyber insurer in Australia and New Zealand. Tim Barratt (pictured immediately below) steps into the chief operating officer role after more than 10 years at the company, during which his work has spanned underwriting, broker relationships, product development, technology and operations. Colin Pausey, who held the COO title, moves to general counsel – a clean internal succession that retains both executives rather than creating a vacancy.
