Janette Hiscock joins Capita as divisional sales and marketing director, while Scot Smith has been appointed as managing director for the business’ organisational health arm.

Janette joins from Aviva, where she was client management director with responsibility for corporate accounts and strategic partnerships across the health business as well as the creation and development of the health and risk consultancy practice. Janette’s new role will focus on creating service packages for both the private and public sector health markets that use the breadth of Capita’s capabilities.

Scot joins from Nuffield Health where, as commercial and business development director for clinical products, services and corporate wellbeing, he was instrumental in the growth of the organisation. In his new position at the helm of Capita’s organisational health business, Scot will seek to grow the business’ presence in the private sector and take its broad offering, including occupational health, employee assistance programmes (EAP) and legal employment advice services, to new markets.
Jason Powell, executive director for Capita’s health and wellbeing business, said: “Janette and Scot have extensive experience of proposition development and an in-depth knowledge of the health and wellbeing and insurance markets. As such, they will be great assets as we respond to the growing demand for high-quality health services in both the private and public sector.”
