VIPR announces Paul Templar as CEO
VIPR, leading UK provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, is delighted to announce the promotion of its Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Paul Templar, to Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
Templar who has been with VIPR since it formed 10 years ago, moves into the role as the company makes structural changes to support its growth strategy. He succeeds VIPR co-founder Bob Brown, who takes on the new role of Chairman.
Templar assisted in the launch of VIPR in 2009, having previously worked as head of IT at Moneynet, which was also owned by VIPR’s co-founders, brothers Bob and Richard Brown. The trio has worked together ever since, with Templar overseeing VIPR’s development team and becoming a driving force in the creation of VIPR’s software solutions.
“As our client base has grown, Richard and I have recognised the need to strengthen the management team and bring on new talent to support our growth. With the recent appointments of Stewart Williams as COO and Greg Denham as CIO it seemed only natural to review all roles and responsibilities and promote Paul to CEO,” says Bob Brown. “Paul has been with us from day one, playing a huge part in shaping the company. He has been pivotal in the development of new products and bringing on new clients, so it was an easy decision for Richard and I to offer him the role.”
VIPR co-founder & director, Richard Brown adds, “VIPR is growing at such a fast pace in our 10th year, so it was the perfect time to reflect on the company’s infrastructure to make the necessary changes within the team. Bob and I will continue to manage the business at a strategic and board level.”
In his new role, Templar will continue working on product development and client relations but will also take on a strategic focus for VIPR, working closely with COO, Stewart Williams. “I’m absolutely delighted to be promoted to CEO,” says Templar. “I know I have big shoes to fill, but I am excited by the role and the challenge it will bring. I am looking forward to steering the company forwards and continuing its success.”
