Allianz appoints new managing director for personal lines
Allianz Holdings has appointed a new personal lines managing director following the recent news that Steve Treloar has decided to leave the business to pursue new opportunities.
Serge Raffard (pictured) will assume the role at the beginning of July and report to Colm Holmes, chief executive of Allianz Holdings.
Raffard has been with Allianz since 2018 and is currently the group strategy, marketing, distribution officer and prior to this he was group strategy officer. Prior to joining Allianz, he worked at a number of other companies including MetLife, McKinsey and JPMorgan.
Holmes said: “Serge is a fantastic addition to my leadership team and I have no doubt the expertise and experience he has brought to Allianz will aid our future success. His significant insight, knowledge and successful campaigns engaging with Allianz customers globally as well as in the UK will be an asset to us. Serge has also led both the digital marketing and behavioural economics teams for Allianz Group and is passionate about delivering an exceptional customer experience. His expertise means he’s in an excellent position to ensure we remain one of the best loved customer focused brands in the UK and maintain our position as a leading personal lines insurer.”
Raffard commented: “It’s a real privilege to be asked to lead this business and build on the success it has achieved over the many years. I’m extremely passionate about always doing what is right for our customers, having a trusted brand and ensuring we have empowered and motivated people. In the UK, we’re incredibly fortunate enough to have all three and I look forward to working with Colm and the rest of my new colleagues to ensure we continue to go from strength to strength.”
