Arrowhead Programs today announces the launch of Arrowhead Professional, a practice group that unites the capabilities of seven offices across the U.S. and more than 125 underwriting, claims, and operations specialists under a dedicated leader. Collectively, these teams managed over $175 million in gross written premium in 2025.
Following the recent introduction of Arrowhead Public Entity, this model unites specialization across disciplines to provide a streamlined access point to niche insurance programs, analytics and capabilities. Arrowhead Professional will focus on professional liability and related specialty solutions designed for industries where precision, specialization and risk mitigation are critical.
With 16+ complementary professional and executive liability coverage and product offerings, the practice group simplifies placement for brokers and ensures the right solutions are delivered quickly, efficiently and with minimal friction.
Arrowhead Professional is led by Stacy Paquet, who will oversee the strategic direction and operations alongside her existing leadership roles within Nexus Specialty and Nexus Reinsurance Programs. Paquet has over 20 years of experience in the insurance industry across professional and management liability. She began her career as an attorney focused on coverage and advisory work, and has held key roles across claims, product management, underwriting, and strategic program leadership. In 2019, she joined Nexus as part of its U.S. expansion and established the team’s financial and professional lines business. Innovation will remain a priority in Paquet’s expanded role with a focus on product development that fills gaps in the market across executive liability, cyber, and professional liability.
“For years, our teams have been building exceptional programs and developing market leading proprietary solutions,” said Paquet, president of Arrowhead Professional. “We now have the privilege of combining all of our underwriting bench strength and innovative thinking to build a strong, unified platform that harnesses capabilities, delivers stronger outcomes and streamlines the customer experience.”
“Risks continue to evolve at a rapid pace, and the organizations we work with depend on reliable, adaptable solutions that are designed for the challenges they face,” said Tom Kussurelis, president of Arrowhead Programs. “The launch of Arrowhead Professional represents a major step forward in how we bring our collective capabilities to the market. By unifying these teams under a shared strategy and Stacy’s leadership, we will be providing a smooth experience for brokers and carriers and building on the exceptional foundations our teams have created.”
