Chubb names Miles as London boss

Chubb Insurance has promoted Jeremy Miles to London branch manager.

In his new role Miles will be responsible for the development of the total portfolio in London and for overseeing the strategic development of the branch.

The London Branch was opened in 1982 and is now the third largest branch in the Chubb Corporation, employing 331 staff and writing business across commercial, financial and personal lines.

Miles has held his present role of UK & Ireland CSI Manager since 2006. Prior to joining Chubb as a senior underwriter in executive protection in 1996, Miles worked in various sales and underwriting roles for amongst others Sun Alliance and AIG. In 1998, he became London retail manager for executive protection, and was promoted to deputy UK & Ireland CSI Manager in 2004. After a brief period with Willis as an executive director for developing financial lines, Miles returned to Chubb in 2006.

Chris Giles, deputy international field operations manager, said: “We are delighted to announce Jeremy’s promotion. He has a proven track record in the insurance market and has played a full part in Chubb’s success in recent years.

"Jeremy has built an excellent reputation with brokers which will be pivotal in ensuring that the London Branch continues to be successful in the years ahead.”
