London market wholesale broker Evolin has launched a new casualty division supported by three senior hires. Kalani Settle-Rhodes has been appointed head of casualty, Shelley Leake becomes senior broker and Oliver Hitchins takes on the role of account executive. Earlier this year, Evolin rebranded from GAWS of London.

Chris Baulf, managing director of Evolin, said: “Understanding and adapting to our clients’ needs is where Evolin stands out. There is immense opportunity in the casualty market right now and bringing in this experienced team, led by Kalani, will allow us to capitalise on this. I am thrilled to welcome Kalani, Shelly and Oliver to the team and I look forward to working with them as we build out our casualty offering.”
