Tim sits on the Leadership Team at Wiispa. His role is focussed on Transaction Execution, Strategy and Operations.

Like many Tim ended up in insurance by accident. Tim agreed to a secondment at a Lloyd’s Syndicate called Pembroke whilst working as a Corporate Lawyer at Taylor Wessing. At the time Pembroke was one of four insurers issuing Warranty and Indemnity insurance policies and the industry was about to boom.

Tim transferred to broking at a large independent broker after a couple of years and went on to establish their Transactional Risk team in Manchester focussing on mid-market deals and businesses.

Tim has worked on hundreds of transactions over nearly twenty years in M&A. His often quoted advice for picking an adviser is that you want advisers to “have seen blood” – you want people who have seen things go wrong and solved problems in the course of those engagements.

The team at Wiispa has a long history of dealing with complicated transactions, deal and insurance issues.

Fun Fact

Despite leaving school many years ago Tim still carries a pencil case with multi coloured pens with him every where he goes. The main advantage of the Covid period was that Tim got less stick for his pencil case when doing in person meetings.
