Simon-Kucher adds Nick Frank, expands insurance market expertise

Strategy and marketing specialist consultancy Simon-Kucher & Partners has welcomed Nick Frank as a partner and leader of the North American insurance practice. He will be based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Frank brings more than 20 years of experience advising insurance carriers and producers on sales, product design, and revenue models. Well-versed in digital transformation, Frank has helped numerous industry clients implement advanced technology to improve sales and optimize pricing. He has also supported property & casualty (P&C) InsurTech firms with breaking into the market.

Frank joins Simon-Kucher from Deloitte, where he spent the last seven years as a partner and managing director. Before that, he was a director at Duck Creek Technology and Guidewire Software, providers of P&C insurance-specific software. At Guidewire, he launched the Guidewire Live SaaS platform that connects insurers to peer benchmarks.

Prior to that he was a principal consultant at Racemi, a provider of cloud migration services, and a principal consultant at S1 Corp., a payment solutions software firm. He holds a BS in computer engineering from the University of Florida.

"Nick is ideally suited to lead our expansion in North America where tectonic forces are driving insurers to revise and rethink their revenue and distribution strategies," says Dirk Schmidt-Gallas, senior partner and global head of insurance at Simon-Kucher. “His solid insurance background and passion, paired with his deep understanding of all-things-digital will be invaluable to help insurance leaders navigate these challenging and changing times."

The Germany-based firm’s global insurance practice supports carriers, producers, and providers with achieving higher conversion, cross-sell, up-sell, and profit ratios.

The sales and marketing specialist consultancy has six US offices staffed by 200+ associates and 20+ partners. Simon-Kucher has more than 1,400 professionals across 40 global offices.
