Zurich has appointed Nikki Lidster head of SME and trading as Will Edwards leaves to pursue an opportunity outside the insurer.

Lidster, pictured, has been with the business for nearly 20 years. She took up the post earlier this year having previously held jobs including four years as SME operations manager.
