Previsico, the live flood forecasting insurtech, has appointed Mark Trumper as its new chief executive.

In his new role, Trumper will lead the company through its next phase of growth and international expansion.

He will be responsible for leading the company’s strategy, overseeing operational delivery and scaling the business across the UK, while accelerating expansion into the US and other international markets.

He joins from Axco Insurance Information, where he served as managing director for five years.

Trumper said: ”I am thrilled to join Previsico at this exciting time of international expansion, following great traction gained with UK insurers and corporations and early success in the US.”

Succession

Jackson will continue to support the business during the transition and remain involved with the company for the foreseeable future.

Jackson said: “Previsico has reached an exciting stage in its journey and I am delighted to be handing over the business as it evolves into a true scale-up organisation.

“Trumper brings a wealth of experience, strong insurance market connections and a great track record of leadership and I look forward to supporting him during the transition and beyond.”
