Allianz Commercial is pleased to announce the appointment of Stuart Toal to the newly created position of casualty account manager, as it continues to strengthen its property and casualty capability.

His appointment follows the recent promotion of Catherine Dixon to the position of head of property and casualty and is in line with the division’s strategy to further align both portfolios. This appointment will be followed by the addition of a property account manager shortly.

Stuart, will be responsible for managing and developing the casualty and speciality line accounts in line with Commercial’s business plan. In addition, he will assist with development and implementation of strategy across the account and manage the training and development of the division’s underwriting staff.

Prior to joining Allianz, Stuart worked for AIG as interim head of casualty and chief underwriting officer. His responsibilities included managing the direction, profitability, compliance and growth of the casualty portfolio.

Catherine Dixon, head of property and casualty, Allianz Commercial said; “The creation of this new role will allow us to progress with our underwriting strategy while enhancing our pricing capability and proposition portfolio. We have set ourselves an ambitious growth target in the mid corporate space and these changes, starting with the appointment of Stuart, will help us achieve this.
