TBIG strengthens leadership team with senior appointments

The Broker Investment Group (TBIG) has made a series of senior leadership appointments as it looks to strengthen its executive team and support the next phase of its growth strategy. 

Stuart Grieb will join the business on 13 July as group chief operating officer, bringing experience from senior roles at Marsh, Towergate, Brightside, WTW and Brown and Brown.

In his new role, Grieb will oversee TBIG’s retail and MGA businesses, with responsibility for driving operational performance and supporting the group’s long-term growth plans.

TBIG has also expanded Nick Hopkin’s responsibilities, with the former group placement director taking on the role of strategic development director. He will now lead placement across the group while overseeing MGA market relationships and insurer partnerships.

Meanwhile, Rosie Guru will join TBIG as group integration director on 20 July. She has a background in transformation and integration, having held senior positions at RSA, now Intact, NFP and in consultancy.

Chris Haggart, group chief executive at TBIG, said the appointments reflected the broker’s ambition to strengthen its leadership team as the business continues to expand.

“These appointments reflect both the progress we’ve made and the ambition we have for the future,” he said.

‘The next phase’

Haggart said that Grieb, Hopkin and Guru’s experience would help support TBIG’s investment in its people, capabilities and insurer partnerships while creating a stronger platform for future growth.

“[They] each bring outstanding experience and expertise that will strengthen our leadership team and help us deliver the next phase of TBIG’s growth,” he said.

The group also confirmed the departures of MGA chief executive James Watkin and retail chief executive Andy Roden, thanking both executives for their contributions to the business.

The appointments form part of TBIG’s wider efforts to build a more connected operating model and enhance collaboration across its retail and MGA operations.
