Insurance Australia Group (IAG) has announced Robert Cutler for the role of group general counsel, effective starting April 4, 2024.
This strategic move, announced by IAG’s chief executive officer and managing director, Nick Hawkins, aims to solidify the company’s legal and governance framework.
Bringing a wealth of experience to IAG, Cutler’s professional journey spans over three decades at Clayton Utz, a law firm in Australia. His tenure there culminated in a six-year leadership stint as chief executive partner, alongside meaningful involvement on the firm’s board.
