Greensmith succeeds Jardine as AXA XL UK CEO
Re/insurer AXA XL which has recently completed its merger has appointed Paul Greensmith as UK CEO replacing Paul Jardine who is leaving the group later this year.
Back in May 2018, XL Group revealed several organisational and leadership changes ahead of the planned integration with the AXA Group which resulted in the departure of top executives including Jardine.
As Jardine's successor, Greensmith will be responsible for the company's legal entities Catlin Underwriting Agencies and XL Catlin Insurance Company UK. Greensmith will be operating as regional leader, UK in project mode. In this role, he will be responsible to help define the activities of AXA XL in the UK, as the division takes shape.
Greensmith joined Catlin in 2014 as co-chief underwriting officer for Catlin’s London underwriting Hub. Following the acquisition of Catlin Group by XL Group, Greensmith was appointed to the role of UK country leader and director of London Market Wholesale in January 2017.
Kelly Lyles, chief executive, client and country management at AXA XL, said: “Paul has a proven track record and the ability to balance both the long-term strategic view with the day-to-day requirements needed to fulfil the role of CEO for these entities.”
