"She’s already connected across the individual protection industry and has upstream mortgage market insights from her time on the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries Board so she will be an asset to our business."
- Daren Boys, Protection Portfolio Distribution Director at Aviva
Prior to this appointment, Charlotte Nixon served as Proposition & Distribution Director at Quilter Financial Planning following a promotion from Proposition Director. In the past, she’s also worked as a National Account Manager at Vitality, and Senior Protection Manager at Personal Touch Financial Services Ltd following several promotions from Account Handler.
In her new role, Charlotte will report to Daren Boys, Protection Portfolio Distribution Director at Aviva. “I’m delighted to be joining Aviva at a very exciting time for their individual protection business. I look forward to leading the Strategic Account Management team as they further develop and enhance their adviser proposition & support,” she said.
Aviva has told Protection Reporter that Charlotte is Holly Ewing's replacement but as Head of Strategic Accounts rather than Head of Intermediary Distribution. Holly moved to the OneFamily Group in July 2024 as Distribution Director for its Beagle Street and OneFamily brands.
Holly said: “From the outset, I was attracted by the OneFamily culture. The Financial Services arena is one that has all the elements needed to influence for the better and OneFamily has put the customer and wider community at the forefront of its strategy.”

“I’m looking forward to welcoming Charlotte to my leadership team where she’ll undoubtedly bring her first-hand experience from across both distributor and insurer perspectives to the fore. She’s already connected across the individual protection industry and has upstream mortgage market insights from her time on the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries Board so she will be an asset to our business,” Daren concluded.
