Chubb has announced two changes within its senior leadership team.
Jeff Moghrabi, division president Continental Europe, has been appointed to the newly-created role of senior vice president, strategic partnerships, Chubb Overseas General.
The appointment follows the strategic cooperation agreement between Chubb and PICC P&C Company of China which was announced in November 2017.
Moghrabi joined Chubb in 2003 as country president for Italy. Boasting over 30 years of insurance industry experience, he has subsequently held various positions including country president, France before taking on wider responsibilities across Continental Europe. He has been division president Continental Europe since 2013.
In his new role Moghrabi will be responsible for leveraging Chubb's global capabilities in support of PICC's customers and other Chinese-affiliated companies around the world in line with the Chinese government's drive to promote the country's "Going Out" and "One Belt One Road" initiatives.
He will report to Juan C. Andrade, executive vice president, Chubb Group and president, Overseas General Insurance, Chubb.
Andrade said: "I am delighted to welcome Jeff to this new and important role. His skills, knowledge and experience will be important in the development of our partnership with PICC."
Succeeding Moghrabi as division president Continental Europe is current country president for Singapore, Adam Clifford.
Subject to regulatory approval, Clifford will begin his new role on 1 March.
In his new role Clifford will be responsible for all Chubb's P&C, A&H and consumer lines operations spanning the 17 countries that make up the company's Continental Europe region. He will be based in Paris and report directly to Andrew Kendrick, regional president Europe, Chubb.
Prior to his current role as country president Singapore, Chubb, Clifford was regional head of casualty for APAC, Chubb. Before joining ACE (now Chubb) in 2014, he held senior underwriting positions with two multinational insurers within the APAC region and also worked in the insurance industry in the UK and Europe for a decade.
Kendrick said: "This is a significant appointment for Chubb in Continental Europe. Adam is a highly skilled and accomplished insurance professional and leader who has proved himself as a great asset in the Asia Pacific region. He joins us at a very exciting time and I look forward to working with him closely and watching him grow our business in Continental Europe. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Jeff Moghrabi for his tremendous contribution as CE Division President and wish him the very best in his new role."
