Robus Group has appointed an experienced accountant with strong insurance connections to head up its Gibraltar office.
Andy Matthews joins Robus at a time when the business is forging ahead with a focused growth strategy in Gibraltar. The Managing Director role will draw on his speciality for managing both client relationships and business development.
Mr Matthews has lived in Gibraltar for two years. Prior to joining Robus Group he was Managing Director of a Gibraltar-based insurer.He previously managed the business development for a global risk consulting company. He was instrumental in developing this business’s offering to insurers and reinsurers, growing revenue from insignificant levels to multi millions of pounds annually.
“I’ve known of Robus since the beginning and I enjoyed a great relationship with founder Chris Le Conte. I have always viewed Robus as highly entrepreneurial and they are thought leaders in the sector, so I’m glad to have the opportunity to become part of the management team. I’m an accountant by profession but have indirectly worked in insurance for 20 years, so I’m hoping to flex these different skills and grow the business even further,” Mr Matthews said.
Robus Group, which is headquartered in Guernsey, has offices in both Gibraltar and Malta offering the benefit of in-house resources to support its client base. This tailored ‘all under one roof’ approach sets the company apart from its competitors who commonly rely on external resources.
Richard Le Tocq, CEO of Robus Group said: “Andy is an extremely motivated professional with extensive and diverse management skills. He is well positioned to bring his newly-evolved role to life.”
