Primis has promoted Jo Blackburn to a key account director to help member firms “deliver on their strategic plans and coordinate development opportunities”. 

The network says Blackburn will work alongside sales director Claire Madge and her team.  

It adds that the new post will complement her existing operations director responsibilities, allowing for a more integrated approach that will benefit the network’s key accounts. 

Blackburn has worked at Primis for seven-and-half years, prior to that she held a variety of posts at Zurich Insurance. 

Primis group managing director, financial services, LSL, Richard Howells says: “Jo’s deep understanding of our operations, vast experience within the financial services industry, and her strong relationship and communication skills will undoubtedly contribute to the success of both roles.” 

Blackburn adds: “Our key partners need our support more now than ever and this role will enable me to deliver exactly that.”
