The new hire aims to boost the loss adjuster’s market presence in the building defects division
Loss adjusting firm Woodgate and Clark has appointed David Parker to the role of business development manager.

Parker began the role at the beginning of December and reports to operations director Graeme Fitzpatrick.
Core strategic ambitions

“It’s great to have someone of David’s calibre and experience onboard and leading efforts to broaden our client proposition in these sectors.”
Parker added: “I am excited by the opportunity to take the lead on improving Woodgate and Clark’s presence in the building defects sector and related construction claims.
