The Chartered Insurance Institute has appointed Matthew Hill as the group’s new chief executive.
Hill, who has been the CEO of the Legal Services Board since August 2019 and has over twenty years of experience in central government, will join the CII in early April. Hill has also held positions at the Gambling Commission and General Dental Council.
He will replace Alan Vallance who left in December 2023 while Gill White will act as chief executive until Hill assumes the role.
CII Group Board chair Dr Helen Phillips says: “We are delighted to have been able to appoint Matthew from a field of very strong candidates. Matthew brings a vast breadth of experience from a twenty-year career in the civil service and his current position as Chief Executive of the Legal Services Board.
“The CII Group Board is convinced that his leadership, combined with the energy of our members and the commitment, hard work and deep technical and sectoral expertise of our organisation’s staff, will enable the CII Group to achieve the goals and ambitions set out in our five-year Strategic Plan launched last year.
Hill says: “It’s a great privilege to have been appointed as CEO of the CII Group. I have been very impressed by the CII’s very clear intent to provide first-rate sector leadership on behalf of its committed and passionate membership, and to deliver the highest professional standards for the benefit of public trust in the insurance, financial planning and mortgage advice professions. I will do everything I can to help it achieve those goals.”
