Iprism appoints former Ecclesiastical leader as non-executive director

Managing general agent (MGA) Iprism has appointed Adrian Saunders as its new non-executive director.

Saunders was most recently the commercial director at specialist insurer Ecclesiastical, a role he was in for nearly 10 years.

Prior to this, he held a range of senior positions at Marsh, Zurich Financial Services and Hiscox.

“We’re delighted to have Adrian join our board as a non-exec,” Ian Lloyd, chief executive of Iprism, said.

”His extensive industry knowledge and credibility will undoubtedly enhance our position in the market.

”His invaluable industry experience and regulatory insights are a bonus. His track record in business development aligns perfectly with our growth ambitions, making him a great asset to our team.”

Vision

Meanwhile, Saunders said that he had known the Iprism leadership team “for some time now”, with the MGA and Ecclesiastical teaming up in 2023 to launch a new platform for brokers.

This will allow firms to offer cover to smaller not-for-profit organisations operating in the charity, education and faith sectors.

Speaking about joining Iprism, Saunders said: ”I believe in them and the company’s vision and am eager to leverage my experience to contribute to its continued success.

”I look forward to working with their talented team as they sharpen their strategic focus on growth and building their position in the market.”
