The British Insurance Brokers’ Association (BIBA) has appointed David Sparkes as regulation director.
Head of commercial, Nicola Maguire and head of insurance, Alastair Blundell also now have wider remits, to attend certain main board meetings.
And recognising the growing importance of environmental social and governance matters, Vanessa Young now assumes responsibility for sustainability alongside her compliance and advisory boards management roles and will be driving forward our support for members in this area.
In addition, to help progress member issues BIBA revealed it intends to recruit two new team members to bolster its regulation and public affairs activities.
Sparkes said: “It is a great honour for me to be invited to join the main Board and I look forward to continuing to support and represent members in my new capacity”.
Graeme Trudgill, CEO at BIBA, added: “I see the overarching themes of issues that are relevant to members being encompassed by regulation and legislation, investment in operational support for members and the future.
“These changes within BIBA will greatly assist members… Having new voices will enable us to stay on top of the broad range of matters that impact brokers.”
