AXA XL has announced plans to expand its offering and capabilities to serve mid-market clients in the UK. As part of this strategic expansion, it has also appointed Hannah Hosking as head of mid-market.
In this role, Hosking will be responsible for driving growth in the higher end of the mid-market segment by leveraging AXA XL’s expertise in underwriting, claims management, and risk prevention services.
“Working together with our colleagues at AXA UK, who will continue to expand their proposition and serve mid-market clients, we will ensure AXA is able to service the needs of this very important and broad client segment and close the gap between our two distinct propositions,” said Sean McGovern, AXA XL CEO, UK & Lloyd’s. “We believe this is an exciting opportunity for AXA in the UK and are delighted to welcome Hannah to the team.”
Elie Hanna, chief distribution officer, UK & Lloyd’s, also expressed confidence in Hosking’s appointment.
“Hannah’s extensive experience is rooted in customer proposition, regional management, sales and distribution in the UK mid-market sector, from both a carrier and broking perspective, making her a great fit for this role,” she said.
A Press release from the company said Hosking is set to join AXA XL later this year.
In February, AXA XL appointed Diego Cerquenich as senior risk consultant, marine, UK & Lloyd’s. A certified master mariner with extensive maritime and shipping experience, Cerquenich’s appointment will see him working closely with the marine underwriting team to enhance risk consultancy capabilities for clients and brokers.
