Michael Rea has been appointed to the newly created role of Director of NIG, the broker-only insurer.
His appointment follows the restructuring of RBS Insurance, announced last year, which saw Charles Crawford, managing director of NIG appointed to the role of managing director of partnerships and bokers – a move which expanded Mr Crawford’s portfolio of responsibilities to include UKI Partnerships, NIG and other intermediaries within RBS Insurance.
Formerly Finance Director at NIG, Mr Rea takes over his new role – now the most senior at NIG – with immediate effect.
Commenting on the appointment, Mr Rea said: 'I am delighted to take on this new role at such an exciting time in the broker market. My aim is to ensure that NIG continues to deliver a first class service to our brokers and also continues the profitable growth which we have delivered since acquisition by the Royal Bank of Scotland Group in 2003.”
The NIG senior management team, which comprises Steve Kingshott, Vivek Banga, David Parker, Mike Crane and Peter Johnson, remains unchanged. "
