Rachel Cohen, Senior Treaty Broker
Can you describe what your current role involves?
I am a senior treaty broker, responsible for structuring and placing casualty treaty programmes with London and International markets for our clients. Currently, the majority of our clients are based in the UAE.
What is your favourite insurance fact?
I remember in my first week of my career, I excitedly came home to my parents to tell them I learnt that the chocolate tester for Cadbury’s had her taste buds insured by Lloyd’s for £1 million.
What did you do before joining New Dawn Risk?
I was an International Casualty Treaty underwriter at Barbican Syndicate 1955 in Lloyd’s for 10 years.
Tell us one thing about your career we didn’t know:
I teach the Under 35’s Reinsurance underwriting pricing seminar every year to 25-30 Reinsurance professionals who have 1-2 years relevant experience. I have also been a Lloyd’s mentor.
What are your hobbies outside of work?
I always hate that questions as I wish I had some real hobbies! Outside of work I mainly enjoy drinking in good pubs, eating in good restaurants and travelling to European cities!
