There’s a lot of talk in the industry about technological advancements, but Ben Hunter is someone who has ‘walked the walk,’ so to speak. Hunter was instrumental to the transformation of the technology segment at Travelers. Under his leadership, the segment became the fastest-growing one within the middlemarket organization in 2016.

Hunter joined Travelers in 2015 as director of national technology; his accomplishments in that role led to his promotion to managing director of Eastern region middle-market operations just a year later. For Hunter, the most rewarding aspect of his work is witnessing the positive impact of his efforts not just in terms of financial results, “but more importantly, on the professional development and morale of the organization’s team members.”

Outside of his duties at Travelers, Hunter is the 2017 co-chair and moderator for the NetDiligence Cyber Risk Summit in Canada. He also served as co-chair of the 2014 United Way campaign for Chubb Insurance’s Toronto branch.
