Davies Group is making two senior promotions to support its investment and international rollout plans in the near future.
Matt Button (pictured) has been promoted to the newly created role of chief corporate development officer. On top of his existing M&A responsibilities, Button will increase his focus on group strategy and stakeholder management. He will also lead and execute Davies’s international rollout plans and will continue to report to group CEO Dan Saulter.
Iva Ivanova has been promoted to the newly created role of M&A director, and will continue to report to Matt Button. She will take on new responsibilities for sourcing and executing new acquisition opportunities.
“We take great pride in developing and investing in talent and leadership at Davies. These new senior roles for Matt and Iva are thoroughly deserved and I look forward to working closely with them and our wider global team, as we continue to invest in deeper domain expertise and in digital transformation in order to become more valuable for our 450 insurance, highly regulated and global clients,” Davies group CEO Dan Saulter.
“We have a great opportunity to drive forward our plans for continued growth and investment, particularly in Continental Europe and North America. We have strong connectivity and dialogue with like-minded businesses across these territories,” commented Button. “I am thrilled to take on this new role in the group and I look forward to continuing to play my part in our exciting Davies story.”
The promotions come after Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo) took a minority stake in Davies earlier this year.
