This will involve increasing our capacity through a combination of financial investment and organisational enhancements.”

And Pilgrims Managing Director, Bill Freear, says: “David has wide ranging experience across the risk management spectrum, yet he remains down to earth and a good listener and he is willing, capable and eager to deal with all our clients’ challenges.
