Allianz appoints head of Birmingham claims

Allianz Insurance has appointed Mark Cant as head of Birmingham claims, responsible for leading the company's claims centre team.

Cant will report directly to Jeremy Trott, head of claims operations, working with senior stakeholders to ensure Allianz is developing operational best practice across Birmingham claims and delivering a higher level of customer service.

Cant joined Allianz in 2013 as head of Bristol claims operations, before moving to his most recent role as head of operations support. Prior to working at Allianz, he worked across the banking sector holding senior operations roles in both the UK and Australia for Citibank and Australia and New Zealand Banking Corporation.

Trott said: “Mark’s extensive experience in a range of both claims and operational roles makes him the ideal candidate for this position. His appointment reflects Allianz’s continued investment in developing the talent of its people.

“As we continue to improve and strengthen our claims function, Mark‘s fit-for-future strategy will play a significant role in enhancing our service to customers, clients and partners.”
