by Whitney Glockner Black , VP, Communications
Published

Resilience, the leading cyber risk company, today announced several promotions as its global growth continues to accelerate. Building on its industry-leading loss ratio, the expansion of its cyber risk management software, and its expanded appetite for its insurance offerings over the past year, these key leaders will help position the company’s evolution in 2025 and beyond.

  • Resilience has consolidated its core insurance operations under George Kotsiopoulos, who was named President, Insurance. George is a seasoned insurance executive who will lead Resilience’s underwriting strategy, capacity partnerships, and actuarial functions, in addition to his existing role leading global distribution and strategy. 
  • Gavin Reed has been named Head of Underwriting for North America. Gavin brings over 20 years of experience as a broker and underwriter in London and the US. In his three years at Resilience, he helped build the company’s underwriting presence on the West Coast before co-leading the US Underwriting team.
  • Sarah Thompson has been named Global Head of Sales Strategy, a new leadership role in the company’s expanding global revenue organization. She will be responsible for strategy, enablement, and operations across all revenue-producing teams. 
  • Jack Jenner has been promoted into a new role as Managing Director, International Insurance, recognizing his long track record in helping build business in multicultural European and Asian markets. He will continue to partner closely with Rehan Hussain, Head of Underwriting, International. 

“Our mission is simple: help clients become resilient to material losses,” said Vishaal “V8” Hariprasad, CEO of Resilience. “And we are thrilled with the rapid adoption of our cybersecurity decision platform and insurance offerings that make this mission real. This tremendous growth and momentum has created the opportunity for our senior leaders to take on more responsibilities, especially as we help our clients break their silos in cybersecurity and insurance to manage their cyber risk holistically.”  

Mario Vitale, President of Resilience added: “We are lucky that our bench is so deep that we’re not only recruiting from the outside, but we’re promoting from the inside. Cornerstone leaders such as George, Gavin, Sarah and Jack are the reason why we continue to enhance the way we serve our broker partners and clients better.” 

The company, which recently increased its underwriting capacity to $20 million through expanded capacity partnerships, has been recognized recently as best in class for its cyber risk management by SC Media and as Cyber MGA of the Year by ZyWave. Resilience’s unique approach helps security and risk management leaders quantify, translate, and transfer risk through its integrated cyber risk solutions.
