Beazley plc announced that the Board has appointed Roy Clark as an independent non-executive director. This appointment will be effective from the confirmation of regulatory approval of his appointment in the role of the Chair of the Beazley Furlonge Limited board or the conclusion of the Beazley plc 2026 AGM, whichever is the later. Roy had a long career at PwC, marked by progressive leadership and deep expertise in the insurance sector and spanning audit, client leadership, sector oversight, and team management roles, equipping him with a comprehensive understanding of governance, risk management, and stakeholder relations.
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. He has led critical projects such as public listings, acquisitions, and large-scale transformation initiatives, showcasing his ability to provide valuable oversight and guidance in dynamic contexts. In May 2024 Roy was appointed as a non-executive director of Beazley Furlonge Limited and has chaired its audit committee since October that year and will become Chair of that board once regulatory approval is obtained.
