Chubb Insurance has said thatJohn Sims, European personal lines manager will be leaving the company this week.

Being part of the team that built Masterpiece and went a long way to changing the face of the High Net Worth market has been a great experience. By being insured with Chubb, brokers and clients can rest easy in the knowledge that they are being well looked after, which is a great achievement in this very competitive market. The team I leave behind is an immensely strong and talented group of people ready and able to take the business to the next level. I am now going to take a break before I make a decision on my next role.”
