Zurich Australia boss resigns
Shane Doyle has officially resigned from his position as chief executive officer, general insurance at Zurich Australia, taking a job with UK-based Dual Group.
Doyle's resignation came a year after Zurich restructured its business, which saw the creation of separate insurance and investment lines.
"I leave behind a talented leadership team, a sound and globally aligned general insurance strategy and a business structured to deliver more effectively to the specific needs of our corporate/mid-market and small-to-medium enterprise clients," Doyle said.
He will leave Zurich by 30 September 2012 and the search for a successor has begun, the company announced.
He will move to the UK later this year to take up a job with the Dual Group as deputy chief executive officer.
