New recruit builds HDI Global presence in Brisbane

HDI Global will have a presence in Brisbane with the appointment of Kelly Townley as Market Manager Queensland.

Australian MD Stefan Feldmann told insuranceNEWS.com.au Ms Townley will help build HDI Global’s market in the sunshine state.

“Kelly is quite well-known and she will have a good impact on our business there,” he said.

“We want to make a commitment to our clients and brokers in the Queensland market, which is very important to us.”

Ms Townley was previously at Aon, where she spent 12 years rising from receptionist in New Zealand to client manager Queensland, and gaining expertise in property, liability and construction.

In her new role she will work closely with underwriting teams in Sydney across property (including power and energy), liability, construction, financial and marine product lines.
