“I am very pleased to announce the appointment of Shali into the newly-created role of chief operating officer,” he said. “AXA is focused on delivering the best possible service to its customers, underpinned by operational excellence. Her track record speaks for itself and I, along with the rest of the management committee, look forward to working with her and taking up future challenges for the benefit of our customers and members.”
