Allianz Commercial has announced the appointment of Baillie Peacock (pictured above) as the branch manager for its Chelmsford office to bolster the senior regional leadership team in the South of England.

Peacock transitions from Aon UK where he held the position of head of sales and service for over four years. His tenure there saw him lead initiatives within a service portfolio that included professional indemnity, office, directors & officers, and financial lines.

Before joining Aon, Peacock held several roles across the insurance sector, including positions at LV= Broker, where he managed commercial motor operations, and Zurich Insurance, where he led a team of underwriters focusing on SME commercial combined products. His career also includes leadership positions at AXA and Allianz Insurance.

Simon Hanley, regional manager at Allianz Commercial, commented on Peacock’s appointment, noting the “wealth of experience” that he brings to his new role in Chelmsford.

“His knowledge and proven leadership skills will be invaluable in driving the business forward and delivering outstanding results,” Hanley said.

Peacock’s appointment is just the latest in an ongoing series for Allianz Commercial, with the insurer also announcing four new regional district managers for the South, North, London, and Midlands & South West:

  • Victoria Ashman named to manage the South region
  • Viral Patel to oversee Midlands and South West region
  • Mark O’Brien to lead the North region
  • Julie O’Donovan to take charge of the London region
