Ex-Aviva director quits RAC managing director role

RAC managing director Angela Seymour-Jackson has resigned a year after taking up the post.

Seymour-Jackson took up the role of managing director in December last year, having previously been life distribution director at Aviva.

Aviva officially sold RAC to private equity firm Carlyle for £1bn in June. The deal meant Seymour-Jackson was answerable to private equity rather than management at the UK’s largest insurer.

At Aviva, Seymour-Jackson was answerable to current general insurance chief executive David McMillan.

An RAC spokesman confirmed: “Angela Seymour-Jackson has resigned to pursue other interests. She will be leaving at the end of January.”
