Harvey worked as the firm’s chief executive until 2021, with him handing over the reins to Liz Latter that year.

Qlaims said Harvey “continued to be a driving force within the business” and supported Latter and the team as the company continued to grow.

“I would like to thank Malcolm for his support and guidance,” Latter said.

“The whole team share his passion to improve the customer claims experience and we will miss his challenge, inspiration and of course the banter.

“We all wish him well and enjoyment for his retirement.”

Cooter added: ”Having identified Liz Latter as his successor and worked closely with Liz to create a fantastic team, he leaves the business in great hands.”
