Jensten Group has announced the appointment of Lisa Siggery to the position of group risk and compliance director, with effect from October 01. Siggery is joining the Jensten team from RFIB, and has also held senior roles at Towergate, Equity Red Star and Groupama. She will report to group chief executive Alistair Hardie, who joined the organisation in early August. The news is the latest from a business which has had a busy year already, following its recent acquisitions of Lloyd’s broker Senior Wright and HTC Associates in Ripley.

Discussing the appointment, Hardie said he is delighted that Siggery is the latest addition to Jensten’s management team and that her extensive experience in a variety of channels will allow the business to further improve its service offering to its franchise network and maintain its robust risk and compliance environment.

Meanwhile Siggery said: “I am delighted to be joining Jensten Group at a key point in its growth strategy. It is one of the most enticing broker business models in the market, with a compelling proposition for clients and partners. I look forward to working with the management team to develop the proposition further.”
