Insurance outsourcing and services provider appoints Lewis as interim GI head
Capita’s head of general insurance Brent Escott has left the firm by mutual agreement after just over half a year in the role, Insurance Times can reveal.
Escott, who joined Capita a year ago, had initiated a number of strategic changes and has built an experienced senior team to lead the company’s insurance operations.
The company confirmed that Capita Insurance Services finance director Wayne Lewis, who was the former Zurich Global Corporate UK chief executive and chief financial officer, will act as head of the general insurance business until a permanent replacement is found. He will be assisted by interim corporate development director Phil Zeidler.
Capita said: “We would like to thank Brent for his contribution to our business and wish him every success in the future.”
Escott’s departure comes only weeks after he spoke about his plans for the business.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
