Tampa-based Slide Insurance has named former Farmers Insurance vice president Charles “Chas” Powell to be senior vice president of sales.
Powell has more than 20 years in the industry and began his career at his family’s insurance agency in Florida. He later was underwriter and territory sales manager at Unitrin Kemper and, most recently, was VP of independent agency distribution with Farmers/Foremost, Slide said in a news release.
Like Slide, which has touted its technology-based approach to property insurance, Powell brings a data-driven approach to the role, the company said. Slide said it now has more than 249,000 policyholders.
Alliant Insurance Services, a national distributor of insurance services, said John Garner has joined the team as a producer in its employee benefits group, based in Atlanta.
Garner was previously a benefits consultant at OneDigital and is licensed to sell health, life and accident insurance. He has worked for Kaiser Permanente and as a police officer, nurse and business owner, the California-headquartered Alliant said in a press release. He will now work with clients in the Southeast.
