Janice Deakin has been appointed deputy chief executive of the Ardonagh Group

Janice Deakin has been appointed deputy chief executive of The Ardonagh Group with immediate effect.

She will continue as chief executive of distribution, a role she has held since the creation of Ardonagh in June 2017.

During that time she has overseen the acquisitions of Healthy Pets, Carole Nash and Mastercover, the company said.

“Janice’s appointment into the deputy CEO role is a hugely significant day for us. That we are able to announce this change today not only reflects the quality of leadership joining our firm but it also highlights the progress we have made in our evolution as a business, moving from fixing to building. The entire Group is now poised to benefit from her extraordinary skillsets as a formidable dealmaker, an unshakeable inspirer of people and a really important part of the Ardonagh story.”

Last month Ardonagh announced that Rob Worrell will join the existing team as chief executive of insurance broking, Deakin’s former role.
