Chubb appoints UK and Ireland head of professional indemnity
Property and casualty insurer Chubb has promoted Chris Savvas as head of professional indemnity UK and Ireland to further develop its financial lines and PI capabilities.
He was previously a senior PI underwriter. In his new capacity, Savvas will be primarily responsible for the management of Chubb UKI’s PI portfolio and business.
Based in London, Savvas will report to Grant Cairns, financial lines manager, UK and Ireland.
Savvas joined Chubb in December 2016 from QBE where he ran the MENA PI portfolio for three and a half years and was based in Dubai. Prior to that, he spent seven years at Travelers.
Cairns commented: "It is a testament to the quality of our underwriting talent pool that we are, once again, able to promote from within the organisation. I very much look forward to continuing to work with Chris in his new capacity as he develops this important line of business."
