Former Aon employee to promote data collaboration

A leading insurance expert has joined Ordnance Survey to help promote the benefits of geographic information to the industry.

Sarah Adams comes to the national mapping agency with 27 years experience in various sales and management roles for both insurance companies and brokers. She spent the last 13 years at Aon.

Adams, an Associate of the Chartered Insurance Institute (ACII), said: "I am very excited to join Ordnance Survey, the recognised market leaders in complex digital geographic data in Great Britain. The insurance market is rapidly recognising the significant potential of this data, not only to pre- and post-risk analysis, accumulation and catastrophe modelling but also sales, marketing and new product development."
