Greece Team Structure

CIRCULAR REF: 2018/022

CIRCULATED TO ALL MEMBERS, BROKERS AND DIRECTORS

We have further strengthened our Greece based team with a number of new appointments and internal promotions, demonstrating our continuing commitment to providing the highest standards of service to our members in the region.

Gagan Dhillon will take over Michael Asherson’s responsibilities for the Greek Membership and lead the claims team based in Newcastle. Michael Asherson will take up a position as partner with leading South African law firm Shepstone and Wylie in Durban and will leave the Club at the end of August. After 18 years with the Club, Michael leaves with our best wishes for his relocation home to Durban and future legal career.

In other internal changes to boost the capabilities of North’s Greek team:

• Claire Andrews is promoted to Deputy Director (Claims) with the specific role of supporting Director Tony Allen in the management of P&I claims run from the Greek Office.

• Maria Psaroudaki is promoted to Deputy Director (Claims) to support Gagan Dhillon in his management role in Newcastle.

• Gillian Stanton has relocated to the Piraeus office as part of the FD&D team. Gillian, a Greek speaker, previously worked in the Greek office between 2010 and 2015.

External recruitment into the team has also continued and two new senior appointments have recently been completed. Duncan Howard, an experienced senior lawyer / claims handler from the Standard Club and senior Greek and English qualified lawyer Dimitra Capas from Norton Rose Fulbright will join North’s Greek team in the near future.

These changes represent a major investment in the resources available to our members based across Greece. They are in line with our business growth plans and are a key part of our strategy to provide the highest levels of service to our Members in Greece.
