We’re delighted to announce Simon Lewis as our Head of Digital Underwriting and President of Atrium Risk Management Services (ARMS). Simon has been underwriting within our P&C team for 16 years, and he’s played a key role in the success of our online underwriting portal – AUGold.

He’s now taking us into the next chapter of our digital underwriting journey, leading the rollout of our AUGold API for our agency partners. He’ll also be building on the great work he’s been doing with Atrium Innovate, the Lloyd’s Lab and the Lloyd’s Product Launchpad, and continuing to expand our digital and Insurtech offering.

The Digital Underwriting role covers all classes. So, he’ll be leading our digital underwriting evolution across the whole syndicate.

He’ll also be taking on the presidency of “Atrium Risk Management Services (ARMS)” – our long-running US marketing, service and claims operation that supports our partners and our online products distributed through AUGold.

We’re always focused on staying one step ahead with our online underwriting, and this new role will be crucial in keeping us at the forefront of the digital space. Congratulations Simon!

Peter Laidlaw: “Simon’s been a driving force across Atrium Innovate, our Insurtech initiatives and a key part of the success of AUGold to date. Atrium are keen to accelerate our digital evolution and having someone of Simon’s calibre to lead us through this next step is exciting for both Atrium and our online partners.”
