Claims Consortium recruits 23-year AXA vet to drive analytics offering
Claims Consortium Group has recruited a former 23-year AXA veteran as director of data and insight to help enhance its analytics offering to insurer, MGA, broker and third-party administrator clients.
In his new role, Wayne Calderbank (pictured) will be responsible for the strategic application of data and analytics across the group. He will oversee a team of 15 analysts and data scientists across Claims Consortium Group, including its software as a service company Synergy Cloud and weather data company, WeatherNet.
With over 25 years’ experience in the insurance and loss adjusting industry, Wayne’s experience includes leading claims technical and operational strategies at global re/insurer AXA for more than 23 years, leading a data transformation programme and a data science function start-up. Most recently, he served as head of data science at Crawford & Company.
Matt Brady, CEO of Claims Consortium Group, said: “Wayne’s appointment is a key part of our strategy to drive forward our winning combination of data service solutions, technology empowered claims management services and software as a service. Historically harnessing our data has been key to driving innovation to better serve clients and their customers. Enhancing the depth of our offering in this area will help us to further inform our own business and the wider market.”
Calderbank commented: “Harnessing, understanding, and analysing data is core to helping our clients to really understand not only the performance of their claims books, but trends from emerging risks, to claims inflation, climate change, claims pinch-points and fraud. As a claims company who develop technology and data solutions, my previous claims and data experiences fit the company’s strategic goals. My ability to connect data analytics, data engineering, data science, claims strategy and claims processing will help differentiate Claims Consortium Group from the rest of the market.”
