Who we are


Different by design  

We are a specialist insurance and reinsurance broker designed for large clients and complex risks. We focus where it matters most to bring together deep expertise, strong relationships and cutting-edge technology to deliver smarter, faster and exceptional placement outcomes.  

It’s more than about what we do. It’s about how we do it. 

We think differently. Act boldly and change things for the better. Whether it’s crafting placement strategies, building market-leading digital tools or creating a space for new ideas, everything we do is intentional.   

We work with industry-leading clients, top-tier partners and the most talented people in the market.    We’re proud to be a firm where expertise meets innovation and where our colleagues genuinely care about doing exceptional work together.  

A culture of trust 

Our strongest asset is our people. And our culture is built on trust. Everyone one who joins us signs our Contract of Trust, a shared commitment to excellence, accountability and respect. As a result, we have a culture that attracts the best talent in the industry and underpins a culture where brilliant people do exceptional work, together. 

Careers at McGill and Partners

Archie Reid

Archie Reid

Partner - Casualty

London, UK

Archie is a Partner in our Complex Property, and Casualty team, based in London. Archie’s main focus is on our US client base.

Archie’s insurance career began in 2011 in the international casualty market in London. In 2021, he switched focus to US casualty to gain a ‘worldwide’ casualty perspective. Archie has been involved in the design and placement of primary and excess programmes for numerous national and multinational organisations, both US based and internationally. Archie specialises in power and utilities, rail and the heavy industry sector.

If Archie was not working for McGill and Partners, he would be hanging out with his family and friends – ideally at a ski resort, beach or on a boat but will settle for a pub or restaurant.

“I joined McGill and Partners for the opportunity and challenge of building out a brand and business that backs its people above all else. The contract of trust nurtures and cultivates a sense of pride in the business and a willingness to innovate and push boundaries in a sustainable fashion. It looked like an adventure and I was keen to get involved.”
