Insurance group Ageas has hired a new chief financial officer (CFO) for its UK business from Aspen Insurance Group.

Aspen UK CFO Jonathan Price has switched to Ageas in the same capacity. Ageas said he will be responsible for financial planning, management of financial risks, and financial reporting for the UK business.

As a senior leader, he will also contribute to the management and decision making of the wider business as part of the UK executive team.

Andy Watson, Ageas UK CEO said; “I’m delighted to welcome Jonathan to Ageas. His appointment completes another part of the management structure changes I announced towards the end of last year. Jonathan has broad and valuable finance experience, and I look forward to working closely with him.”

Price commented: “Ageas has been on a transformational journey over the last year as it simplifies its model and focuses on improving profitability. I’m excited to be joining the team at this time and look forward to taking the business through the next stage of its development.”
