HSB UK & Ireland has appointed Andrew Burke as its new chief executive officer, subject to regulatory approval.
The specialist engineering insurance and inspection services provider confirmed Burke will succeed Stephen Worrall, who left the business earlier this year.
Burke brings more than three decades of experience in the financial services and insurance sectors. He previously led DAS UK Group as CEO, where he focused on strengthening the company’s strategic partnerships.
