Close Premium Finance sales director Tim Wilson leaves following review

Close Premium Finance sales director Tim Wilson has left the company.

Close said Wilson's departure followed a strategic review last year where it decided to provide specialist management for its personal and commercial lines products.

John Taylor will be heading up personal lines, and on an interim basis, Steve Taylor will head up commercial lines.

Close added that the change would have no impact on its day-to-day relationship management and service to brokers.
