Jarrod Hill

CEO, CGU & WFI

Jarrod was appointed CEO, CGU & WFI on 13 September 2021.

He was formerly Country President Australia & New Zealand with Chubb Insurance. Jarrod is a seasoned insurance executive with 30 years’ industry experience, including a strong background in technical underwriting, combined with distribution and regional management roles.

Previous roles include Head of International Property Business with Chubb based in the UK, as well as senior roles with ACE Group and CIGNA Insurance, both acquired by Chubb. In recent years, Jarrod has led CHUBB Australia and New Zealand post integration, gaining experience in the areas of transformation of operations, culture and technology while achieving significant growth in gross written premium for the combined business.

He will use these skills to drive the success of IAG’s new Intermediated Insurance Australia division. This division was established in November 2020 to support IAG’s strategic focus on building better businesses. It brings together underwriting, claims, brand and customer to focus on growing the scale of the partner and broker business, embedding digital capabilities to drive exceptional service and improved performance.

This appointment sees Jarrod’s career return full circle: his first role was in underwriting with Commercial Union, a predecessor to the current CGU insurance business.
