Aspen mines AIG leader with AGCS & Aon pedigree to lead transformation

Bermudian re/insurer  Aspen Insurance Holdings plucked the strategy and growth guru from AIG to step in for a newly crafted position to lead a pending organizational transformation.

Robert Tartaglia (pictured) steps in to the newly created position of SVP and chief operations officer for insurance to “lead Aspen’s transformation efforts across insurance operations, with a particular focus on driving process, data and systems excellence to support our commercial and business strategy,” Aspen said in its announcement.

Tartaglia will arrive from AIG where he last held the title of operational strategy and growth leader to lead the high net worth division’s transformation initiatives around organizational design, operational effectiveness, and technology implementation.

Tartaglia has previously served as global COO at Allianz unit AGCS, chief broking COO at Aon, and in a slew of other senior operations at AIG.

Aspen group chief operations officer Rob Houghton commented: “I am delighted that Robert has agreed to join Aspen. His experience in insurance operations and his leadership in transformation will be invaluable to the success of the insurance segment as we look to build state of the art, back-office operations. I am pleased that we are able to attract such industry-leading talent to our team. Robert’s appointment is testament to the market reputation Aspen has built over the years and the strength of our insurance division.”
