Beazley plc has appointed Roy Clark as an independent non-executive director.

Clark had a long career at PwC focused on the insurance sector and spanning audit, client leadership, sector oversight and team management roles.

With decades of experience at PwC across major financial centres including London, Singapore and Sydney, he has firsthand insight into the operations and challenges of multinational, listed businesses, Beazley said. He has led critical projects such as public listings, acquisitions and large-scale transformation initiatives.

In May 2024 Clark was appointed as a non-executive director of Beazley Furlonge Limited and has chaired its audit committee since October that year. He will become chair of that board once regulatory approval is obtained.
