Allianz has appointed Adam Farr as its new national sales and development manager for the group’s broker and agency division.

Mr Farr joined Allianz in 2005 as a senior account manager before moving on to run regional distribution in NSW. Since 2009 he has served as SA state manager.

“The appointment will allow Adam to build on his strong sales and leadership skills by playing a bigger role in the strategic development of Allianz’s commercial business,” the company says in a statement.
