MS Amlin appoints new CFO from Old Mutual replacing Worth

Re/insurer MS Amlin has appointed Iain Pearce to replace John Worth as chief financial officer (CFO) who is leaving to pursue other interests outside the company.

Pearce will join the business in June 2019 from Old Mutual. He will be a part of MS Amlin's executive team, reporting to CEO Simon Beale.

Most recently, Pearce held the position of finance director at Old Mutual. He has worked with KPMG for the first 10 years of his career, leading a number of large transformation projects and strategic initiatives.

Worth will be leaving MS Amlin to join the board of UK-based insurance provider Hastings Group.

Beale said: “I am delighted that Iain will be joining MS Amlin’s senior leadership team, bringing with him an extensive and proven track record from leading global financial services firms.

“We continue to implement our strategy of repositioning MS Amlin for a sustainable, profitable future, and I look forward to working closely with Iain to consolidate and build on progress made this year.”

He added: “Iain’s passion for fostering a high-performance team culture is one of the many reasons that make him a great fit to help drive MS Amlin to become a modern, forward-thinking organisation with a long-term future.”
