Insurance Weekly News

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Weekly News -- The Mutual Reinsurance Bureau (MRB) announced that it has begun the formal process of identifying a successor to the company's current chief executive officer Timothy Dorr. Dorr plans to retire from the Illinois-based joint reinsurance association following the selection of a new CEO.

The MRB's Board of Directors has retained The Jacobson Group to assist in the search for and selection of Dorr's successor. The search will be led by Margaret Resce Milkint, managing partner, who oversees engagements across all insurance industry verticals as part of Jacobson's executive search practice.

"MRB's relationship-building and underwriting skills are well-respected and invaluable to its clients," said Susan Haack, chair of the MRB Board of Directors and the search committee. "This is a great opportunity for the right person to leverage the company's foundation and to build an exciting future for our organization with the dedicated MRB staff and our reinsurance partners."

"The next CEO of MRB will be uniquely positioned to champion the organization's pristine reputation," added Milkint. "He or she will have the chance to drive unparalleled growth and continue MRB's record of high-integrity service and success."

Since 2010, Dorr has provided strong leadership as MRB's CEO. Throughout his tenure, Dorr and the Board of Directors have shown steadfast commitment to the continued growth and success of MRB and its assuming companies. His successor will have the opportunity to build upon the organization's rich legacy, financial strength and respected brand in the mutual insurance company community.
