Crux Underwriting, a technology-enabled MGA, today announces the appointment of Jade Wilcox as CEO of Property.
Jade will lead Crux's expansion into the property market, helping to broaden the firm's specialist underwriting appetite.

I've always been a passionate advocate of the transformative potential of MGAs and their ability to continually challenge norms and push the industry forward. Crux's vision of elevating service standards to strengthen partnerships is grounded in transparency and powered by deciphered, real-time data. This aligns perfectly with my own values and ambitions, and I'm energised by the opportunity ahead and can't wait to get started. Jade Wilcox
