Our People

The exposure and training of our people is amongst our foremost competitive advantage. We call our people the Team.

The Team Leader is Eng Alex Wanjohi who is the founder and principal shareholder of Apis, and also Apis’ current Chief Executive Officer / Managing Director.

Alex’s qualifications, training and experience – running to 26 years and counting – are amongst the most outstanding within East Africa. His experience and exposure spans engineering and technical risk and loss assessments; reinsurance; direct insurance; and insurance broking. He is an alumnus of the School of Engineering of the University of Nairobi, Kenya; the Munich Reinsurance Company Insurance Training Centre in Munich, Germany; the National Insurance Academy in Pune, India; and the Global Insurance Training Centre of the American International Group, AIG, in Wall Street, New York, USA.

4. Training and experience in risk management, risk improvement and loss prevention.

5. Extensive and hands on experience on claims management and follow-up. Our CEO successfully negotiated and ensured appropriate settlement of one of the major and most complex claims in a manufacturing concern in 1995 in Kenya, which involved a boiler explosion; impact on other processing plant; and the attendant business interruption losses.
