COG Financial Services says former PSC Insurance executives Tony Robinson and John Dwyer have joined the board as non-executive chairman and non-executive director respectively.

The listed group says the pair’s “proven business acumen” will complement its core finance broker and aggregation divisions.

Mr Robinson and Mr Dwyer were formerly MD and director of broking at PSC, which was acquired last year by UK-based Ardonagh Group.

Outgoing COG chair Patrick Tuttle said: “We believe the highly successful performance track record and proven business acumen that John Dwyer and Tony Robinson have jointly delivered over a long period in Australia’s insurance broking sector will be highly complementary and additive to COG’s core ... business.”

Stephen White and Mark Crain have resigned as COG directors. Cameron McCullagh will become a non-executive director and Peter Rollason will remain a non-executive director and chair of the audit and risk committee.

Mr Robinson said: “These changes to the COG board are an important step in COG’s evolution as it provides a new skill set and focus.”
