As Insight Executive Group and the companies within it continue to scale across the UK and North America, we’re delighted to announce the appointment of David Drummond as Non-Executive Finance Director across all four of our businesses.

David brings with him over 30 years of financial leadership and board-level insight, having held senior roles at a well-known global recruitment organisation as Regional Finance Director responsible for operations across the UK, North America, and emerging international markets. His experience spans both public and private sector finance, with a proven track record of supporting ambitious, values-led businesses through periods of growth and change.

Since stepping away from full-time executive roles, David has worked closely with recruitment businesses as a trusted advisor, providing strategic financial guidance that balances governance, sustainability, and commercial foresight.

At Insight Executive Group, David’s remit will be to help shape long-term strategy, strengthen financial governance, and ensure the group remains robust and agile as it continues to evolve.

“David joins us at a pivotal moment in Insight’s journey,” says Richard Collins, CEO and Co-Founder of Insight Executive Group. “As we enter our second decade and grow our consultancy and international resourcing capabilities, his expertise will be invaluable in helping us scale with clarity, discipline and purpose. I’m thrilled to welcome him to the board.”

David’s appointment underlines Insight’s commitment to building a resilient, future-focused business with the right experience around the table to guide sustainable growth.

When he’s not sharing Board-level insight, David enjoys pursuing his sporting interests and spending quality time with his family and grandchildren.
