LV= has named Peter Gallagher as the group claims director for the firm’s general insurance business.

He joins the organisation from Highway Insurance, which LV= has recently acquired.

He spent five years with Highway Insurance, and leaves behind his position as claims director to take up his new role.

Earlier in his career Gallagher worked for Munich Reinsurance and St Paul Reinsurance, and has accumulated over 20 years of experience in the insurance industry.

Every aspect of the general insurance portfolio’s claims service now falls within his sphere of responsibility.

In his new post Gallagher will work across LV=’s offices in Bournemouth, Croydon, Bristol and Brentwood, and will report to Peter Horton, operations director.

Horton has expressed his delight at Gallagher’s appointment, and Gallagher himself has expressed his excitement at his new role.
