Cyber insurer Emergence has opened an office in WA, further extending its national network.

James Lee will run the business from the Perth office as Business Development Underwriter. He was most recently senior account manager with Allianz Australia, according to his LinkedIn profile.

“Having expertise on the ground is the best way to support our WA broker partners,” MD Troy Filipcevic said, adding the business aims to deliver “innovative, market-leading solutions” to the market.

Emergence’s other offices are in Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne and Brisbane.
