Covéa Insurance announces Personal Lines promotions

In line with its plans for future growth in the intermediated market, Covéa Insurance has announced the promotions of both Dave Jowett and Steve Cowley, to the role of Senior Key Account Manager within its Personal Lines Distribution team.   The appointments are recognition of the insurer’s continued commitment to strengthening relationships within the intermediated market as it seeks to develop its motor, commercial vehicle and home business.

The insurer is proud of its track record of growing in-house talent, with Dave and Steve joining the insurer’s graduate programme in 2000, working their way through various operational leadership roles before joining the Personal Lines Distribution team in the role of Key Account Managers. Both have nearly twenty years’ experience in the insurance industry.

Sue Coffey, Director of Intermediated Distribution, Personal Lines said:

“We are committed to investing in our distribution strategy as we believe that sustainable accounts grow as a result of strong, established relationships. Both Dave and Steve have a wealth of experience in the intermediated area and have been instrumental in developing and managing the relationships with our key accounts.
