GT Motive appoints strategic insurance consultant to accelerate growth

Layton Davies has joined GT Motive as the estimating software company accelerates its growth within the UK claims market.

Davies, a former Audatex executive, has taken up a strategic insurance consultancy role with GT Motive to help achieve this ambition for growth, following the company’s successful year of award wins and striking large partnerships.

GT Motive’s platform, GT Global, is a cloud-based system that promotes collaboration between automotive stakeholders to create an estimating solution that aims to reduce claims costs and cycle times.

Commenting on his appointment, Davies said: “I am so excited to be joining the highly experienced team at GT Motive, at such an important time in their UK expansion. I really stand by all that the GT team are passionate about, they’re bringing choice to a market that has been craving it for so many years.”

“Not only will it bring innovation to current providers but to the market as a whole, insurers, supply chain, work providers and the repairer community. It opens new doors to a future that’s safeguarded by mitigating risk agnostically across suppliers using the most cutting-edge technology.

Davies joins GT Motive following seven years at Audatex in various roles focused on strategic third-party relationships and developing new products.

David Vella, executive director for the UK and Ireland at GT Motive, said “We’re proud to welcome Layton to our already strong team. His experience and expertise will really help accelerate and enhance our growth.”

“We’ve seen an unprecedented amount of support from the UK industry, as many truly believe in our mission to bring choice to the market. Layton’s support and relationships with insurers will only strengthen our alliance and goal to bring harmony to a once stagnant market.”
