Allianz Partners has appointed Tomas Kunzmann as CEO.
Kunzmann (pictured) took up his post on 1 July and succeeds Sirma Boshnakova, who was appointed board member of Allianz SE earlier this year.
Kunzmann first joined the Allianz Group in 2009, holding various positions at Allianz Private Krankenversicherung (APKV), including head of health underwriting.
In 2013, he joined the insurer’s German sales organization (ABV) as sales manager before taking responsibility for the regional branch offices in Ingolstadt and then Kempten.
He moved to Allianz SE in 2017 as executive assistant to CEO Oliver Bäte, and then held the role of interim head of the CEO Office.
Since 2020, he has been leading the mobility and assistance line of business for Allianz Partners as a CEO and board member. Kunzmann has been succeeded in this role by Laurent Floquet.
Boshnakova said: “I am happy that Tomas is taking on the CEO role at Allianz Partners. Given his experience at Allianz Partners, he’ll bring business continuity, hands-on market knowledge, and a strong track record of collaboration and implementation to the role.
“I wish him the very best of luck in his new position.”
Kunzmann added: “After two years leading the mobility and assistance business, I am proud and humbled to take the reins of the Allianz Partners’ organisation and lead the business into the future.
“Our focus will remain on boosting growth, by strengthening our core activities and building new business models and ecosystem platforms.”
