Peiris will remain on the board as a director.
Peiris moved into the acting president role earlier this year when Colin Fagen, formerly group chief operations officer at QBE, stood down following his departure from the major insurer.
“Anthony and Richard represent companies with diversified insurance portfolios and different business models – a long-established major insurer and a rapidly growing challenger brand,” Rob Whelan, ICA CEO said.
Day and Enthoven have been appointed for a term of two years.
