Zurich Life and Investments has appointed Jacqui Lennon, Kieran Forde, Shaneen Marshall and Daniel Longden to the executive team.

Lennon would join in February 2021 as head of customer and digital, Forde as chief distribution officer in November, Marshall as head of strategy, and Longden as chief financial officer.

Forde joined Zurich from ANZ in 2018 and had held roles as head of bancassurance and direct, and head of Zurich propositions.

Marshall would lead several critical enterprise wide projects and drive Zurich’s long-term strategy; she joined from TAL where she was most recently integration insurance business director.

The firm said the appointments would further drive growth of the retail business across the Zurich and OnePath brands, with the former’s acquisition of the latter being finalised last year.

Justin Delaney, Zurich Life and Investments chief executive said: “Both Kieran and Jacqui have a reputation for collaboration and creativity. Their appointments, alongside those of our other executives and the distribution leaders we have in Nathan Taggart and Tim Atley, will support our commitment to partnership and adviser service.

“We are delighted to appoint Jacqui, Kieran, Shaneen and Daniel to these important roles. They will help to drive Zurich’s commitment to offering high quality, differentiated products for our customers and partners, which is core to our strategy and the reason we continue to invest in the OnePath and Zurich retail brands.”
