Jeremy joined the business three years ago and has been Head of Business Development for the past two years. He has extensive knowledge of the payment protection market having spent 10 years within the industry in both business development and client relationship management roles.
In making this appointment, Assurant Solutions has taken the opportunity to merge its business development and client relationship teams based out of Slough with immediate effect. Commenting on this decision Drazen Jaksic, Sales & Marketing Director, said: “Bringing the teams together will not only maximise their knowledge and skills but it will also enable us to build a closer working relationship between the teams and better utilise the strengths of each individual to serve our clients in these challenging times.”
To support Jeremy in his new position, Karen Wheeler will manage the client relationship team in the UK and Sinéad Marconi will manage the Irish team. Their role titles will change to Head of Client Development to closer reflect the nature of their core focus.
