Tulloch is currently CEO international insurance with responsibility for Aviva’s insurance operations in France, Canada, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Poland, Turkey and India.

“I am delighted that Maurice has been appointed a director of the Company given his exceptional skills and experience developed over 25 years within various roles in Aviva," said Adrian Montague, chairman of Aviva.
