SARASOTA — Longtime partner and agent at Sarasota-based Purmort & Martin Insurance Agency Russ Bobbitt assumed the role of president and CEO of the firm from Jamie Purmort.
According to a press release, Purmort has resigned to pursue other opportunities. Bobbitt will now manage day-to-day operations of the agency, steer the firm's direction and handle business development.
Bobbitt has been a licensed Florida agent since 1996. He has licenses in property and casualty, life, health and surplus lines.
“As a privately owned firm, we don't answer to shareholders,” Bobbitt says in a statement. “We answer to our Sarasota friends and neighbors, and our agency has always been uniquely positioned in our dedication to customer-focused service. In this new role, I will continue that mission while also striving to support the community in many ways, which has always been a passion for me.”
