"I am confident that her work in this new role will continue to enhance Markel's reputation for superior claims service in the market."
Carsey joined Markel in 2017, and was most recently senior managing director, claims – legal and head of litigation. She was previously a partner at a Texas-based insurance firm, where she managed large litigation teams handling complex cases nationwide. She is a member of Markel's D&I Global Steering Committee and Talent Advisory Council and serves on the Houston board for the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF).
"In partnership with our Specialty leadership team, Jamie will continue to advance our claims organization to best serve our partners and customers," Martin said. "I look forward to her further impact on Markel in this new role."
