SGI Canada has announced the appointments of Robert Osicki and Andrew Voroney as chief insurance officer and chief operating officer, respectively.

As chief insurance officer, Osicki will oversee SGI Canada’s corporate insurance division – which includes corporate claims, product management, pricing, and corporate underwriting. His appointment takes effect from December 01, 2021.

Osicki joined SGI Canada in 2004 while studying actuarial science at the University of Regina, later serving increasingly senior actuarial roles. He most recently served as the vice president of product management and corporate underwriting. He is also a qualified actuary as a Fellow of the Casualty Actuarial Society and the Canadian Institute of Actuaries.

Voroney assumed the responsibilities of chief operating officer of SGI Canada on June 01, 2021; he has been with the company since 2016. In his previous role as vice president of commercial lines, Voroney led the company’s underwriting and product management teams while engaging with SGI Canada’s broker partners. He later became the regional vice president for SGI Canada’s Saskatchewan operations.

Prior to joining SGI Canada, Voroney spent 12 years at Group Medical Services. He has an Executive MBA from the Kenneth Levene Graduate School of Business at the University of Regina, along with undergraduate degrees in math and computer science.

“Andrew and Robert are incredibly strong additions to SGI’s executive team,” said SGI president and CEO Andrew Cartmell. “Both bring years of insurance experience, a proven track record of leadership and a focus on efficient, profitable growth through innovation and strong partnerships, which will serve the company well in our ever-evolving industry.”

Earlier this month, SGI issued a statement that praised the Saskatchewan government for introducing amendments to the Traffic Safety Act, 2021. The new changes to the law allow the police to immediately suspend driver’s licenses and impound vehicles, should the driver in question be charged with stunting, racing, or excessive speeding.
