Allianz reveals regional restructure in the UK

Two become one at Allianz, with its British unit combining the regional teams for the North and Scotland.  

With the operational restructure at Allianz Insurance plc, one team will comprise 170 commercial market-facing staff based in the Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle, and Glasgow branch offices. The consolidated regional team will be headed by Chris Everett, who currently serves as regional manager for the North.   

The move is aimed at bolstering Allianz’s service to brokers in the combined regions.

“Our regional branch network ensures that our broker partners have access to local decision-makers with an in-depth knowledge of the area, who are right by their side,” said broker markets director Sarah Mallaby. “This decision enables us to support our growth ambitions and further strengthen our relationships.”

US-headquartered Chubb recently did the same thing, expanding Andy Macfarlane’s role from regional manager for Scotland to now include the North as well.
