More Than boss promoted to group role

Ian Hood RSA

RSA has promoted Ian Hood to group e-business director.

Hood has headed up e-business at the insurer’s More Than division since 2009.

He is now responsible for driving growth across RSA with electronic tools and systems, such as direct selling capabilities and broker self servicing options.

Hood said: “I am delighted at being given the opportunity to lead the RSA group e-business strategy.

“Online and electronic trading technology is becoming more and more important to RSA around the world as brokers, agents and customers wish to transact and communicate with us electronically rather than through more traditional channels.”

David Weymouth, RSA group operations and risk director, said: “Ian has a strong track record of delivering e-business solutions for More Than, and was the obvious choice for this new role.

“We are building a team over the coming months to support RSA’s e-business offering which will enable a more joined up approach across all our markets.”
