EPIC Insurance Brokers & Consultants has announced the appointment of Jim Romanelli as executive vice president.

Romanelli, who is based in New York, has been tapped to lead the company’s expansion initiatives in the Northeast region. He has over 30 years of experience in the insurance sector, which includes holding key positions at CNA and Chubb Group of Insurance Companies.

Additionally, Romanelli has served as chair of the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation’s Northeast Division for three years. He is also a member of the Long Island YMCA Board, where he leads the strategic planning committee and participates in the executive compensation committee.

Moreover, Romanelli is an associate trustee of the Northwell Health System and a member of its insurance committee.

Len Scioscia, president of the Northeast region at EPIC, commented on Romanelli’s appointment and said his background “positions him exceptionally well for his role at EPIC.”

“His notable rapport with a wide network of brokers and producers throughout the Northeast is a significant asset,” added Scioscia. “We are thrilled about incorporating Jim into our Northeast leadership team, confident that his presence will bolster our expansion efforts across various markets with a smooth transition.”

Phil Remig, NY Metro president at EPIC, offered similar comments regarding Romanelli’s addition to the team.

“I am very excited to have Jim Romanelli joining our leadership team,” said Remig. “He brings a wealth of knowledge that will support our continued growth in the Northeast.”

Romanelli also spoke about his new role in a company release, stating that he is eager to be part of the EPIC team and “contribute to their ongoing success story.”

"Joining EPIC feels truly special, as I've witnessed firsthand their exceptional ability to accelerate growth while seamlessly integrating and innovating,” said Romanelli.

Last month, EPIC’s parent company Galway Holdings announced changes to its executive team. Part of the move included the appointment of EPIC CEO Steve Denton as chief executive of Galway Retail Services.
