Insurtech Blink Parametric has announced the appointment of Brian Barter as Chief Executive Officer with immediate effect, succeeding Sid Mouncey, who will remain with the company as Chief Commercial Officer.

In his new role, Barter has been tasked with accelerating Blink’s strategy to drive the company’s growth. This move underscores the insurtech’s vision to become the premier parametric platform for global insurers and financial services partners.

Prior to joining Blink, Barter served as Managing Director at BoatyardX (initially developed as part of Shipyard Technology Ventures), a global software business that builds and runs software for fintech, payments, e-commerce and IoT companies in Europe, North America, South America, Africa and South East Asia.

Through his career, Barter has also held senior positions at Accenture and the Bank of Ireland.

David Morrison, CPPGroup Plc Chairman, said: “This appointment comes at a pivotal time as we build on Blink’s strengths to capture the compelling opportunities ahead. Brian’s extensive strategic and operational experience in the financial services, IT and InsurTech sectors make him the ideal leader to guide Blink through its next chapter.”

Barter commented: “I am absolutely delighted to join the Blink team. Blink is in a rapid growth phase, with a fantastic set of global partners who are aligned with Blink in wanting to deliver innovative, brand-enhancing customer experiences and real value to customers at the moment it is needed.

As Chief Commercial Officer, Mouncey will continue to progress the execution of Blink’s growth and distribution strategy through an even greater focus on delivering value and innovation for partners worldwide.

He stated: “I am delighted to welcome Brian to Blink Parametric. He brings a wealth of technology and strategic experience, which will be invaluable to our team as we continue to build an even more partner and profitability-focused operation whilst evolving and enhancing our offering.”

Barter added: “Blink has built excellent foundations in recent years, including refining and enhancing its technology stack, service model and growing product portfolio. These foundations were built under Sid Mouncey’s leadership, and in his new role as Chief Commercial Officer, he will continue to play a key role in the team, staying close to partners to shape the growth of the business.”
