ALLIANZ RETAIL GROWS BROKER PARTNERSHIPS TEAM

Allianz Retail has announced the appointment of two new key account developers for its Broker Partnerships team.

Mickey Attia and Rebecca Maynard, who are both CII trained, will be responsible for contributing to the growth of the personal lines broker segment. In addition, they will both support the strategic direction of the division’s broker business by managing and developing its network of brokers.

Mickey has been with Allianz since 2011 when he joined the Commercial division as a new business manager. He has also held the role of key account developer for the regional broker partnerships team in the South East region.

Rebecca joins Allianz from Comparethemarket.com where she worked as an account manager. She was responsible for growing and developing new and existing commercial accounts for the price comparison website.

Adam Marshall, head of broker sales and distribution, Allianz Retail, said: “I am delighted that we are able to make these appointments to the broker partnerships team. Brokers are a vital part of our growth strategy and these appointments demonstrate our continual commitment to the broker channel.

“We have a highly experienced and skilled team and I have no doubt that Mickey and Rebecca will add to this as we look to support Retail’s ambitious growth target to be a top five insurer in the next five years.”
