In his expanded role Mr. Martin, current president of Chubb’s workplace benefits business, will have overall operating responsibilities for the division, overseeing its strategy, product and business development, profit and loss performance, and underwriting operations, Chubb said.
James Walloga will continue to lead Chubb’s North America specialty accident and health business and look to further grow this segment, which offers accident and illness medical insurance for corporate, scholastic and leisure travel, and affinity programs, Chubb said in a statement.
“This new structure will provide our distribution partners and clients with greater resources and better access to products and services that are designed to meet the unique challenges of workplace and travel risk for individuals, employees, as well as a variety of organizational entities,” Matt Merna, senior vice president, Chubb Group, and division president, Chubb North America major accounts, said in the statement.
Chicago-based Mr. Martin will report to Mr. Merna and to Joe Vasquez, senior vice president, Chubb Group, and head of its global accident and health business.
