There is a new chief executive officer at Optio Group – and he is taking the helm immediately.
David Robinson (pictured) has moved into the role having been initially appointed by the specialty MGA as managing director back in March, 2022. According to a Press release announcing his promotion, he has worked to “optimise operational excellence” across the data, support and underwriting functions of the group. He has also been a key player in its expansion across several geographies and multiple business lines – he was seen as a crucial component of the group setting up Optio Re MENA, which began its trading earlier this month.
In his new role, Robinson will continue to report into executive chairman Matthew Fosh, who highlighted what a strong year it had been for the group.
“I am delighted to announce David’s appointment as CEO of Optio Group,” said Fosh. “David has had a major impact since he joined, accelerating growth across the business and allowing us to achieve important strategic milestones, including establishing operations in MENA.”
