Bob Pybus appointed as director

The Institute of Insurance Brokers (IIB) has added Bob Pybus as a director.

Pybus is founding partner and director of NPA Insurance Group.

IIB chief executive Barbara Bradshaw said: "We’re delighted that Bob has agreed to join us.

"With almost 30 years in the insurance industry, Bob’s experience in the UK broking market and his entrepreneurial and dynamic approach bring an added dimension to our board, particularly in the areas of acquisitions and business growth.”

Pybus added: “The IIB has a strong voice in the broking fraternity and it’s an honour to be asked to join the board. It’s good to be working with people I like and respect.

"I’ll try and use some of my experience to help guide the IIB along the path I believe it should take to act in its members’ best interests.

"As a fellow broker running an expanding regional business, I have ‘hands on’ experience in dealing with the ups and downs of the market and all things that affect it.”

His appointment will be confirmed at the IIB’s Annual General Meeting later this year.
