Katayama joins from Mitsui & Co Risk Solutions, where she has worked for over a year, most recently as Deputy General Manager, specialising in insurance risk management and reinsurance solutions.
Based in Singapore, Katayama will lead client management and production for Japanese interests abroad in Southeast Asia as Miller continues to build its regional presence.

Katayama’s earlier career included working in broking and client management roles for firms such as Gallagher Re, Guy Carpenter, and AIG in Tokyo.
The announcement follows other key appointments made by the (re)insurer in the past three months, including Paul Cumberland taking on the newly created global role of Chief Broking Officer, KS Shim being appointed as Head of Specialty at Miller Korea, and Tam Hui Von being appointed as Reinsurance Broker in Singapore.
