Sam Hudson has been appointed managing director of RedArc, with Christine Husbands (pictured) becoming commercial director.
Hudson assumes his new role alongside his existing position as managing director of Assured Futures, which also sits within the Howden Group.
Hudson will run the operational side of RedArc, allowing Husbands more time to lead on developing all client-facing, partner, business growth and marketing activities.
The firm acknowledged its considerable growth during Husband’s time as managing director in terms of the number of clients, insurers, affinity groups and membership organisations, the number of individuals supported, and the third-party suppliers it works alongside.
It also said Husbands’s ability to build and nurture these relationships has been central to the company’s success to date, adding on a day-to-day basis, business will continue as usual and there will be no change to client relationships.
Hudson said: “It is a privilege to join the team at RedArc and work with the dedicated team that Christine has cultivated.
“Having already worked in the health and protection side of the group, I know just how much their support is valued at what is often the most difficult time in people’s lives.”
Husbands (pictured) added: “Personalised, holistic added-value services have never been more important in helping people cope with their experience of illness, trauma or bereavement.
“In becoming commercial director, I look forward to having more time to focus on extending our reach, and working alongside our existing clients in tailoring our services and support.”
