Irish B2B SaaS company, Blink Parametric, has installed a new Chief Executive Officer.

Brian Barter will helm the Blink team as they accelerate the execution of Blink’s strategy to drive growth, furthering its ambition to be the parametric platform of choice for insurers and financial services partners worldwide.

Before joining Blink Parametric, Barter held senior positions at Accenture, Bank of Ireland and more recently as Managing Director at BoatyardX - initially developed as part of Shipyard Technology Ventures - a global software business that builds and runs software for fintech, payments, e-commerce and IoT companies in Europe, North America, South America, Africa and Southeast Asia. 

He led the company from inception to acquisition by Ergo in 2022 and steered the successful integration of BoatyardX into the wider Ergo Group.

Barter succeeds Sid Mouncey with immediate effect. Mouncey will remain with Blink Parametric as Chief Commercial Officer, continuing to progress the execution of Blink’s growth and distribution strategy through an even greater focus on delivering value and innovation for partners worldwide.

“I am delighted to welcome Brian to Blink Parametric,” Mouncey said. “He brings a wealth of technology and strategic experience, which will be invaluable to our team as we continue to build an even more partner and profitability-focused operation whilst evolving and enhancing our offering.”

Blink Parametric, founded in 2016, creates innovative travel and cyber solutions to enhance the services and customer experiences of the world's leading insurance companies. Its data-driven technology solutions deliver real-time assistance, automated claims processes and resolution services in a simple, fast and reliable way. 

The company, which is part of CPPGroup Plc, works with more than 28 partners across 22 geographies, generating more than £1.6 million of Annualised Recurring Revenues.

David Morrison, CPPGroup Plc Chairman, said: “This appointment comes at a pivotal time as we build on Blink’s strengths to capture the compelling opportunities ahead. Brian’s extensive strategic and operational experience in the financial services, IT and InsurTech sectors make him the ideal leader to guide Blink through its next chapter.”
