TAL appoints new chief information officer
David Gillespie will join independent life insurer TAL as chief information officer.
He was most recently at Fidelity Worldwide Investment in London as head of application delivery and enterprise services. His role involved leading the technology function for the company's retail, customer service and eCommerce departments.
"David brings deep knowledge and experience in delivering technology solutions that are focused around customers throughout the world, and this fits with TAL's refocused customer strategy," TAL managing director Jim Minto said.
He added that technology is playing a key role in the life insurance process, and that the addition of Gillespie comes at a time when TAL is refocusing its business systems, processes and culture around its customers.
