Like many individuals in the market, Lucy didn’t start her career in insurance. After graduating with a degree in Mathematics with Finance, she joined a large accounting firm, where she spent two and a half years advising clients on tax governance and transaction-related tax due diligence. 

It was through working on transactions that Lucy developed an interest in the wider deal process and the complexity and problem-solving that is involved. Beyond the technical analysis, she enjoyed understanding how risks influence negotiations and how creative solutions can help bridge gaps between parties.

The move into W&I insurance offered the opportunity to remain close to transactions while building relationships with a broad range of advisers, investors and businesses. At Wiispa, Lucy is excited to help clients navigate transaction risk and contribute to helping transactions progress smoothly.
