European insurer and reinsurer Glacier Group has named Andreas Zdrenyk as the new head of Group Risk Management.

In his new post Zdrenyk will be directly responsible to chief executive officer Robbie Klaus, and is to be based in the firm’s Swiss HQ in Pfäffikon.

Robbie Klaus has welcomed the appointment, praising Zdrenyk’s track record and stating that his addition to the firm underlines Glacier’s commitment to better risk management.
