Adriana Scherzinger has been promoted to group head of captives at Zurich Insurance, effective from 1 September.
Scherzinger is currently head of alternative risk solutions at Zurich North America, where she is responsible for the service and management of international insurance programmes for multinational customers.
With her new role, she will be based in Zurich, Switzerland, and report to Vinicio Cellerini, global head of customer and distribution management for the Commercial Insurance Division in Zurich.
She started at Zurich in 2005 as a reinsurance specialist, having a long history with captives at the company, including the roles of head of captive services in Latin America and captive fronting manager in Europe.
Scherzinger will succeed Emma Sansom, who left Zurich at the beginning of April.
Joshua Nyaberi, who has taken on the global captive role on an interim basis since Sansom’s departure, will continue until Scherzinger starts in the position on 1 September.
