Since the formation of CIIGV in 2020, Stott has been the catalyst of CIIGV’s brand, deliverables, services, growth and development.

A significant focus in recent years has been innovation, including the development and growth of CIIGV’s people capability, technical knowledge and additional technical services for customers, such as the development of an exclusive partnership with Protection Risk Operations And Control Technology, (PROACT) Australia — a cutting-edge, affordable digital risk management tool that can be implemented into any customer’s business. Insurers are always looking for customers who implement strong risk management and provide sustainable coverage and premiums for those who take it seriously, making this a win-win for insurers and customers alike.
