Allianz Legal Protection is boosting its sales and distribution team with the appointment of Jonathan Thomas as senior business developer.

Jon joined ALP’s Legal Expenses division, effective 19 September, working out of Bristol.

His experience within the legal expenses insurance sector spans 30 years, most of them at DAS. His background is largely in leadership and managing operational services such as legal advice, claims and contact centres.

James Barclay, head of sales and distribution at Allianz Legal Protection, said: “Jon’s experience will prove very valuable as we continue to evolve and grow our Legal Expenses proposition. We are so happy to have him with us.”
