AXA XL has appointed Jonathan Salter as head of risk consulting, effective 1 October.
In his new role, Salter will drive AXA XL risk consulting’s strategy and value proposition globally, working closely with the firm's underwriting and claims teams.
Salter, who has more than 20 years of experience in risk consulting, is currently deputy CEO of AXA XL risk consulting, a role that he has held since 2018.
He will succeed Corinne Vitrac, who has moved to AXA Group as head of group property and casualty risk management.
Commenting on this promotion, Nancy Bewlay, global chief underwriting officer at AXA XL, said: “As the COVID-19 crisis continues to challenge the way companies operate, loss prevention has never been more important.”
She continued: “Jonathan Salter’s extensive experience, innovative approach and proven track record position him ideally to lead AXA XL Risk Consulting, which has, since March, been offering remote services, including site analysis. Our remote, tech-enabled capabilities have been extremely well received by clients and now form a key part of our product suite.”
In August, AXA XL promoted Matthew Latham to chief underwriting officer for global programmes and captives.
