The SME platform is due to offer personalised and real-time quotations, working with customers either on a direct basis or via selected broking partners and uses data-powered insights and algorithmic underwriting, allowing the creation and design of bespoke policies.
Thomas, who joins the firm from WTW where he was director of risk, insurance consulting, and technology, has said:
“I’m very excited to be joining such an innovative and passionate team in Aurora. Their clear and transformative vision of how SMEs should be able to access the right cover is ground-breaking and will no doubt benefit a huge number of businesses as the company continues to grow in the coming years.”
Jan-Vincent Finn, Aurora co-founder and chief executive, added:
“Ian will be fundamental in ensuring that we provide our customers with data-driven insight and education. His work will inform the future of the products we offer while communicating why and how these products are relevant.
“We hope our focus on serving the underserved and underinsured will be transformative for small to medium businesses.”
