Marine-focused underwriting agency RedSky Insurance has recruited Stuart Routledge as Senior Underwriter.

He started with the agency last week, the agency announced in a brief statement.

Mr Routledge is a marine specialist with more than 10 years’ experience in the Australian market.

He was most recently with QBE’s Marine Speciality Risks unit where he was responsible for underwriting complex commercial marine risks such as cargo, commercial hull and liability.

Sydney-based RedSky offers an array of marine-focused products including cargo, commercial hull, carriers and pleasurecraft.

It started in late 2019 when highly regarded marine underwriter Jill Murphy acquired the marine portfolio from her previous employer, Agile Underwriting. The other co-founder is Heather Roberts, previously NTI corporate development specialist.
