Nick Hide joins Integra as Global Head of Power Generation

Integra is excited to announce that Nick Hide has joined in the role of Global Head of Power Generation.

In this newly created position, Nick will be responsible for the strategic growth and evolution of Integra’s Power Generation proposition throughout the world.

Nick is a chartered engineer with specialist knowledge of dealing with conventional and renewable power generation, including coal, CCGT, nuclear, hydroelectric, wind and solar on both construction and operational policies.

Having graduated with a PhD in engineering and materials science, he worked as a research engineer conducting failure analysis of gas turbines for a turbine manufacturer and the Ministry of Defence. He then spent several years working as a consultant in failure investigation and remaining life assessment of power generation and downstream petrochemical plant for owners, operators, and insurers.  In addition Nick is fluent in French and English.

He joined the insurance industry in 2006 initially in London handling power generation and heavy engineering losses on a home-foreign basis and has since held senior practice leader and director positions in both London and the Middle East.

Leo Dixon, Chief Executive Officer, Integra Technical Services commented, “With power generation from both conventional and renewable means at the heart of the energy transition we are delighted to have an adjuster of Nick’s calibre and profile take up this important role for Integra.

Nick’s wealth of experience in these sectors meant he was the natural fit for this position, and I and my colleagues are looking forward to working closely with him to develop our adjusting proposition and win more claims instructions in these sectors.  Nick will be supporting colleagues around the Integra office network to ensure we deliver consistently high levels of support to brokers and (re)insurers.”
