Insurance Times rounds up the most significant appointments, promotions and leadership changes from 27 to 31 October 2025
Among the moves this week was the global MGA incubator Mission unveiling the launch of Lumara Insurance, a new UK commercial combined MGA led by the ex-Covéa duo of David Aslin and Mark Greig.
The new business, expected to launch in the final quarter of 2025, will focus on business insurance and motor trade combined products for UK brokers.
Aslin and Greig both join from Covéa, where Aslin was head of mid-market and Greig served as underwriting manager for the south.
Meanwhile, Sean Byrne, managing director at non-standard motor broker Got You Covered, confirmed that he will leave the business at the start of December.
Byrne, who joined the broker in 2022, said it had been “a real privilege to work alongside such a talented, passionate and committed team”.
This week also saw commercial property insurer FM appoint Alison Erbig as executive vice president, chief financial officer, effective 1 November 2025.
Erbig joins from Liberty Mutual Insurance, where she spent 22 years in senior financial leadership roles, including CFO for global risk solutions.
She succeeds Kevin Ingram, who will retire at the end of the year after a 35-year career with FM.
After that, Allianz UK hired Vicky Yuill as distribution director at Allianz Personal Broker.
Yuill will join in December 2025, reporting to interim managing director Graham Wright, before reporting to incoming managing director Glyn Hughes when he takes up the role in February 2026.
She brings more than 20 years of experience to the position, most recently serving as head of insurance at Sainsbury’s Bank. Yuill previously held senior roles at Ageas and Kwik Fit Insurance Services.
Finally, London-based MGA Amiga appointed Martin Mills, founder of travel and personal accident specialist Millstream, as non-executive chairman.
He founded Millstream in 1999 and served as managing director until its acquisition by Nexus Underwriting in 2015. After Nexus was bought by Brown and Brown in 2023, Mills exited the business.
