Scott makes the move after 15 months with BTFG where he headed up development of life insurance products having previously worked with CommInsure and the Commonwealth Bank for more than 11 years.

In taking on the role Scott replaces the former Head of Product, Renee Hancock, who has moved into the newly-created role of Head of Research and Development.

Scott will report to ClearView Chief Actuary and Risk Officer, Greg Martin and will oversee the roll-out of a new online quote and application engine designed to simplify the electronic application process.

Hancock will report to ClearView General Manager of Distribution, Chris Blaxland-Walker and will provide support to ClearView’s distribution team in growing sales, improving customer retention and expanding relationships with the non-aligned adviser market.

The appointments follow the recent announcement of co-operation agreement between the two insurers (see: ClearView, Sony Life Sign Co-operation Agreement) with ClearView Managing Director, Simon Swanson stating they positioned the group for continued growth.
