The CEO of Marketform, a syndicate at Lloyd’s of London, has stepped down to “focus on the continuing recovery of [his] wife”.
Simon Turner stepped down from his position as Director and CEO last Friday (January 13).
John O’Neill, former Chief Operating Officer, will take over as interim CEO. He commented, “In order to focus on the continuing recovery of Simon’s wife, Holly Bellingham, and due to the ongoing needs of Marketform, Simon took the decision after some leave of absence to resign these positions in the best interests of the company, and thus enable him to now give his full attention to matters at home.”
“Simon remains on the board of Marketform Group Limited and other group companies as well as being a substantial shareholder of the holding company, Marketform Group Ltd.”
“While my thoughts go out to Simon and Holly, I am honoured to take on this role at Marketform. Working with Simon Lotter, our Chief Underwriting Officer, John Mumford, our non-executive chairman, and other members of senior management our key focus will be on leading the company to deliver on our goals of profitability and delivery of our business plan,” he added.
