Energi has appointed former Oklahoma insurance commissioner John Doak and former North Carolina insurance commissioner Wayne Goodwin to its board of directors.
The arrival of Doak and Goodwin will add industry expertise and depth as the company progresses into providing captive insurance programmes through eCaptiv and claims, risk management, marketing, and technology solutions through eServices Companies and eTech Services.
Doak served as the 12th insurance commissioner of Oklahoma between 2011 and 2019, prior to which, he held roles at Marsh, Aon Risk Services, HNI Risk Services, and Ascension Insurance.
He concurrently holds the role of executive vice president of regulatory affairs, innovation, and business development at Insurance Care Direct.
In addition to spending eight years as North Carolina insurance commissioner, Goodwin is a former insurance regulator, four-term state legislator and successfully opened two law firms.
During his four consecutive terms in the General Assembly, he sponsored legislation that prompted greater incentives for economic development, education, healthcare, and public safety.
Brian McCarthy, CEO of Energi, said the company was pleased to welcome Doak and Goodwin to the board.
He added: “As former insurance commissioners, both bring a wealth of experience and expertise in the insurance industry and will be tremendous assets to the company.”
James Townsend, chairman of the Energi board and CEO of Townsend Energy Company, commented: “Both John Doak and Wayne Goodwin have an incredible understanding of the insurance industry as former insurance commissioners.”
“We are very delighted to have both served on the board of directors of Energi.”
