Paul Corver, claims director of the KMS group, succeeds Bill Bower who became interim chairman in July 2007.

The board of ARC, the UK trade body for legacy management professionals has announced that Paul Corver has been appointed deputy chairman of the association.

Corver, who is claims director of the KMS group, succeeds fellow board member, Bill Bower, who agreed to become interim deputy chairman in July last year.

Bill’s primary ARC role as head of the ARC Academy is unaffected by the changes.

ARC chairman, Philip Grant, said: “Continuity is a critical part of maintaining the momentum of any market body.

"The board is very pleased that Paul has both agreed to become Deputy Chairman and, subject to being elected to the board in November by our membership, has also indicated his willingness to take over the chairmanship when I stand down at the association’s AGM.”
