DIMONT bolstered its leadership team on Tuesday with a former VanWagenen executive who also has been involved with multiple industry organizations such as the American Financial Services Association and the National Automotive Finance Association.

The Dallas-based provider of insurance claims adjusting and collateral loss mitigation services to the residential mortgage and auto lending industries announced the appointment of Jeffery Anderson to senior vice president of auto services in a strategic move to continue the growth of its auto division.

At DIMONT, the company explained Anderson will oversee the entire auto services division including managing the auto operations employees and building client relationships. He will also be responsible for identifying and developing business solutions for auto finance companies, driving the growth of the company’s repo claims, insurance monitoring and total loss solutions from the discovery of customer needs to implementation and ongoing delivery.

Bringing 30 years of insurance claims, customer experience and business development experience, DIMONT highlighted Anderson has played a role in developing product processes and system enhancements, increasing sales, implementing operational strategies and leading multi-million dollar projects.

Anderson previously worked at VanWagenen as senior vice president of sales, specialty claims and client management. He has also worked at The Hartford and State Farm where he led management teams, built out customer experience programs, developed and launched new products and analyzed the claims process.

During his time in the industry, he has been a member of CBA, ABA and AFIP Association while holding the position of board member at AFSA and the NAF Association. Anderson is also licensed in property and casualty insurance in all 50 states.

“We’re excited to continue growing DIMONT’s auto division by adding Jeff as the senior vice president of auto services,” DIMONT chief executive officer and president Denis Brosnan said.

“With Jeff’s leadership, our auto services team will continue enhancing its position as a market innovator, providing repo and total loss claims services by licensed public adjusters and innovative, data-driven insurance monitoring solutions to address the collateral protection needs of our clients,” Brosnan went on to say.
