Fireman's Fund executive moves to QBE North America as president

Kathleen O. Zortman has moved from Fireman's Fund Insurance Co. to president of standard lines property/casualty at QBE North America, QBE said Tuesday.

Ms. Zortman, whose appointment took effect Sept. 1, most recently was chief field executive at Fireman's Fund.

She succeeds Alan Driscoll, who was named chief operating officer of QBE North America's standard lines property/casualty business last month.

“Kathleen has a track record of driving profitable growth through underwriting excellence and a strong focus on the customer, which is exactly what QBE is doing here in North America and around the world as we align our product and service capabilities,” said Dave Duclos, CEO of QBE North America, said in a statement.

Ms. Zortman is based in New York.
