Allianz Commercial has appointed four regional distribution managers for the South (Victoria Ashman), North (Mark O’Brien), London (Julie O’Donovan) and Midlands & the South West (Viral Patel ) regions in a bid to improve the support offered to brokers. Each individual will have responsibility for overseeing the sales and distribution strategy and establishing long-term relationships with partner brokers.

Mike Thomas, director of distribution for digital and mid-market at Allianz Commercial said: “Whilst we have strong long-established relationship with our partner brokers, I’m sure that these relationships will develop further with the leadership from Victoria, Viral, Mark and Julie. Their expertise will enable us to deliver the best of Allianz to our partner brokers and customers and deliver our strategic growth plans.”
