Zurich Life and Investments GM Sales and Marketing Retail Risk Philip Kewin has been promoted to become GM Retail Life and Investments.

The role of EGM Investments Matt Drennan has been made redundant, and he is now in discussions regarding other employment opportunities within the wider Zurich group.

CEO Colin Morgan says the move is designed to refocus the business on the customer rather than product manufacturing.

“Bringing together our operational and sales teams not only gives us the opportunity to get closer to the customer, but also us to better harness the talent spread throughout the business,” he said.
