‘CFC’s tech roadmap is like no other insurance business,’ says new appointee
Specialist insurance provider CFC has appointed Ian McLean as its new chief technology officer.
In his new role, McLean will be responsible for accelerating the delivery of CFC’s technology roadmap.
He brings over 25 years of experience in scaling technology functions to the role and joins from financial services platform Pollinate, where he was chief product and technology officer.
He has also held senior technology roles at insurers and insurtech companies, including Covea, UnderwriteMe and Validis.
CFC group chief operating officer Matthew Glenville said McLean’s arrival came at a “pivotal time” for the business.
He said: “He’s joining at a pivotal time for CFC, bringing the kind of experience and leadership that will help us continue to scale with purpose.
“Technology is central to how we serve our brokers, support our underwriters and grow globally. McLean will play a crucial role in helping us further scale these efforts with pace and precision.”
