He has established a reputation for his knowledge of claims trends, supply chain and mitigation opportunities in the sector. Before joining GRS, he was head of renewables at Advanta Global Services; before that, he was the founder and head of adjusting at Renewable Energy Loss Adjusters. He also held loss adjusting roles at Cunningham Lindsey International, McLarens Young International, and Charles Taylor Consulting. Pooley’s renewables experience includes onshore wind, photovoltaic and concentrated solar power plants, biomass, and hydro.

Their expertise and experience, combined with our existing teams, will consolidate our stated aim to provide the industry with a comprehensive set of solutions for major and complex risks across geographies and classes of business.
