Plymouth Rock Assurance Direct Group President and CEO Wilson to Retire
Plymouth Rock Assurance, an east coast-based insurance company, announced that Gerry Wilson, president and CEO of Plymouth Rock Assurance Direct Group, has informed company leadership of his decision to retire.
“It has been a privilege to lead Plymouth Rock in New Jersey these past two decades,” Wilson said in a company press release. “I am enormously proud of our growth and what we have accomplished together.”
Wilson has led Plymouth Rock’s New Jersey operations since 2000. During that time, he has fostered its growth into a leading writer in that state, and then in Pennsylvania, according to Jim Stone, CEO of The Plymouth Rock Group of Companies, in the press release.
In 2003, Wilson was named Insurance Company Person of the Year by the Professional Insurance Agents of New Jersey (PIANJ). He also launched the direct to consumer channel at Plymouth Rock in 2006 and has completed numerous acquisitions, as well as added the Get Home Safe and Car Watch programs to Plymouth Rock’s product and service features, Stone said in the release.
“We thank Gerry for his leadership and the tremendous strategic and cultural contributions he has made to our organization over the past 20 years,” Stone said.
Wilson plans to remain in his current position until his successor is found, and there is currently a national external search process underway to find a new President and CEO.
“The company’s future prospects are extremely encouraging, and I look forward to a smooth transition,” Wilson said in the release.
