Allianz Commercial plans Newcastle office
Allianz Commercial is expanding its regional branch network with the opening of an office in Newcastle.
The insurer is currently searching for premises in the city centre and aims to have a team in place within the next six months.
Les Archibald has been appointed to manage the new operation, joining Allianz from Primary General & Rural Insurance where he has been underwriting director for the past two-and-a-half years.
In his new post Mr Archibald will oversee broker development in the North East and will be leading the underwriting and new business teams.
Allianz Commercial general manager, Chris Hanks, comments: “To be successful in the UK commercial sector, we firmly believe you need a strong regional network that keeps underwriters and decision-makers close to the customer.”
Last week, Allianz Commercial promoted Samantha Balnaves to head its rehabilitation team and appointed Caitlin Evans to replace her as a rehabilitation co-ordinator.
Ms Balnaves has been charged with developing the rehabilitation team and keeping Allianz at the forefront of the rehab market.
