O’Riordan succeeds Patel as CFO of The Fidelis Partnership

Conor O’Riordan has been promoted to Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at The Fidelis Partnership (TFP), succeeding Hinal Patel, who is leaving the business for health reasons.

As CFO, O’Riordan will oversee the financial reporting, planning, treasury, corporate finance and investor relations functions, continuing to work closely with Grahame Dawe (UK CFO & Group Controller), Rob Kelly (Ireland CEO & CFO), Gareth Walters (Bermuda CFO), and Catherine Scullion (Syndicate 3123 CFO).

O’Riordan joined TFP in 2021, since then he has held a number of key positions, including his most recent role as Chief Capacity Officer and Group Head of Corporate Finance.

During this time, he was instrumental in major corporate projects and transactions, including TFP’s bifurcation from Fidelis Insurance Group in 2023, multiple capital raises, the establishment of Fidelis Syndicate 3123 and the landmark $2 billion refinancing transaction in 2024.

Richard Brindle, Chairman and Group CEO at The Fidelis Partnership, said: “We’re pleased to be appointing Conor to the CFO position after four successful years with TFP, during which he has demonstrated a deep and instinctive understanding of the firm’s strategic and financial objectives.

“Having played an important role in supporting the business through some of its most significant and innovative transactions to date, Conor is perfectly positioned to be entering this new role at an exciting time of growth for TFP.”

Brindle added: “On behalf of the entire team, I would also like to extend our appreciation to Hinal for his invaluable contribution to TFP’s growth and success over the past decade. He leaves with our very best wishes.”

Based in London, O’Riordan will continue to serve on the TFP’s Executive Committee. He commented: “Having had the privilege of contributing to a number of TFP’s most important strategic milestones over the past four years, I’m delighted to take on the role of CFO and to continue working closely with Richard and the wider Executive Committee to help drive the firm’s next chapter of growth, outperformance and future strategic transactions.”
