Core Specialty adds Patrick Gordon to its Board

Core Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries have appointed Patrick Gordon to the company’s Board of Directors, effective immediately.

Gordon replaces Marc Stad on the board, who has served as a Director Designated by Dragoneer Investment Group, since the Core Specialty’s recapitalisation in November 2020.

The company stated that both the Board and management are “grateful for his many contributions and wish him the very best in the years ahead.”

Gordon currently serves as Principal at Dragoneer, a position he has held since 2018, focused on private investing.

Before this, he had held roles with Google, Stripe, and Parthenon Capital, serving in operations and investment management roles.

Jeff Consolino, Core Specialty’s Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We appreciate Marc Stad’s leadership on our board. From inception, Core Specialty has greatly benefited from Dragoneer’s history of partnering with management teams in companies characterised by sustainable differentiation and superior economic models.

“Dragoneer has substantial committed capital, a long track record of successfully identifying category and industry leaders and deep experience in the public markets and Patrick Gordon’s skills and experience will continue to drive these benefits to Core Specialty. Mr. Gordon will be an excellent fit with the Core Specialty Board.”
