The AA has recruited Kevin Sinclair from AXA Insurance as the new director of insurance, reporting directly to chief executive Tim Parker.

Sinclair, who is currently head of personal lines underwriting at AXA, is thought to be working out his notice period with the insurer before joining the AA.

The recruitment follows the departure of Clare Salmon, head of AA Financial Services, and head of insurance Neale Phillips, both reported exclusively in Insurance Times.
