Chartered commercial insurance broker Konsileo has announced the appointment of Vicky Ferrier as its first Chief People and Commercial Officer.
Vicky first joined Konsileo’s Board as a non-executive director in October 2022 and will now join the executive committee on full time basis to support Konsileo’s national expansion.
Konsileo has doubled in the last year to employ more than 120 people and place in excess of £40 million GWP on behalf of its clients on a run-rate basis.
Vicky’s role brings together culture and talent acquisition, and she brings a breadth of experience from a number of sectors including as director of talent and capability at Very.co.uk, UK stores finance director at Boots, and head of investor relations and communications at Weir Group.
As co-founder of Capital Conversations Vicky has worked with hundreds of organisations to develop collaborative and engaged teams that drive customer and shareholder value.
Founder and CEO John Warburton commented: “Vicky has been at the cutting edge of helping businesses create value through doing the right thing by their people. That’s a great fit for us, because our economic purpose is driven entirely by our mission to have the happiest, best rewarded and most professional brokers in the business. She brings fresh insight into each dimension of that mission, and her rare blend of experience from financial and investor relations to culture and people development will help us continue to invest in our people, and scale up our business.”
Vicky Ferrier commented: “Konsileo has the potential to be extraordinary for everyone involved. The closer I worked with John and the team as a member of the board, the more excited I became about the opportunity to be on the front line of such an innovative and compelling company.”
