Data-driven fleet insurance tech company Humn has revealed that David Williams (pictured) has joined the company as a non-executive director.
Williams will provide his “invaluable insight and counsel” to assist Humn as it continues its growth, investments in autonomous vehicles products, and begins international expansion, the company said.
With more than 30 years of experience in autonomous vehicle development and regulatory engagement, Williams was previously the chief commercial underwriter at one of AXA’s largest branches. In addition, he chaired the ABI Motor Committee, and served a key role in government-funded consortia which looked at the future of mobility as well as connected & autonomous cars.
It was noted by Humn that Williams has “vast experience in managing acquisitions, partnerships, and rapid change” – which are all “incremental” to the company’s growth trajectory.
“I am delighted to be joining a team that delivers strong growth and supporting them in this transformational stage of expansion,” commented Williams. “This role will be incredibly rewarding as I look forward to being part of a mission that is making roads safer and providing a solution that actually impacts driving behaviours.”

Late last year, Humn acquired the managing general agent Walsingham Motor Insurance Limited (WMIL). According to Humn CEO Mark Musson, the deal was an “obvious and compelling” transaction, which would deliver savings to WMIL customers and accelerate Humn’s distribution network with brokers.
