In today’s rapidly evolving landscape, insurance firms face increasing pressure to innovate, comply with new regulations, and meet ESG and governance standards. Non-executive directors (NEDs) play a vital role in helping leadership teams navigate these complexities while providing independent oversight and strategic guidance.
At Insure NED Search, we connect forward-thinking companies with board-level experts who bring decades of experience, fresh perspectives, and risk management acumen.
The insurance sector is entering a pivotal period marked by:
Increased digitisation
Regulatory scrutiny (IFRS 17, Solvency II reforms)
Cybersecurity challenges
Sustainability and DE&I pressures
