Chief executive says appointment is an ’important step in ensuring we are in the best position to help our clients transition to net zero’

Axa XL has appointed Vicky Roberts-Mills to its new head of energy transition role as it looks to be an effective partner to clients moving towards net zero.

A statement released today (23 May 2023) said Roberts-Mills will develop Axa XL’s global energy transition strategy and help bring together the full capabilities of the Axa Group and Axa XL.

She will join the property, casualty and specialty risk division of Axa later in 2023.

Sean McGovern, chief executive of UK & Lloyd’s at Axa XL, said: “Vicky’s appointment is an important step in ensuring we are in the best position to help our clients transition to net zero, leveraging our full suite of products, services and insights.

“This is an important strategic initiative for us and I am delighted to welcome Vicky to the team.”

’Extensive experience’

Roberts-Mills will join Axa XL from Aon, where she led the London renewables business line.

She also spent 18 years at BP, where she held several senior positions, including leading the global insurance team and managing risk management and governance strategies.

“Her extensive global insurance and risk management experience, combined with her knowledge of being client-side, places her in a unique position to understand our insureds’ perspective and bring the very best of Axa to those clients and partner with them through their transition,” McGovern added.
