clock • 1 min read

Exeter Family Friendly has announced the appointment of two new key account managers to its field based sales team.

Sean McTiernan and Mark Roberts have joined the team, which the provider said would to further bolster their field sales support and strengthen their commitment to the intermediary market.

Both Sean and Mark held previous roles as key account managers for protection at Friends Provident and between them have over 25 years' experience in the protection industry.

Mike O'Brien, head of intermediary sales, said: "At a time when many insurers are cutting back or consolidating their intermediary sales teams, this is another statement of our commitment and dedication to financial advisers."

"In addition to managing relationships with our key existing supporters, an important aspect of Sean and Mark's roles will be to deliver our seminars to as wide an audience as possible; we believe that the Retail Distribution Review creates a real opportunity for advisers to embrace protection."
