Head of Warranty & Indemnity
Bryan Dressler joined Markel in May 2022 as a Senior Underwriter to lead the Warranty & Indemnity (W&I) team within the Professional Financial Risks (PFR) division. Having qualified as a lawyer in the US, Bryan started his career in insurance as a broker at Aon and then JLT specialising in public company D&O. In 2017, he transitioned to transactional liability with a focus on placement strategy, before joining Arch to lead their international W&I underwriting team. As Head of W&I, he has built the in-house underwriting team from the ground up, leveraging the insights provided by Markel’s 10 years supporting transactional liability coverholders.
Bryan holds a BA in Political Science and Communication Arts from the University of Wisconsin and a JD from Georgetown University.
Bryan lives in West London with his wife and daughter, and watches highlights of American sports that are on way too late in London. He is a fan of all Boston teams.
“I joined Markel because of its reputation for empowering its people to build together. We don’t dabble. We find solutions for our clients as market leaders in our chosen fields.”
