Special Investigations Units across North
America for both personal and commercial claims. He will be
based in Dallas and report to
Megan Watt, Head of North America
Claims.
Mr. Barziza has more than 25 years of insurance industry
experience, with a little more than 15 being spent at Chubb. He
joined Chubb as an outside claims representative in 2003, and since
then has held various technical and operational claims management
positions. Prior to this positon, Mr. Barziza served as a senior
claims officer where he led the General Adjuster and Executive
General Adjuster teams across North

his understanding of the claims organization, structure, and
commitment to the brand makes him an ideal fit for this position,"

technical excellence that is synonymous with our reputation."
Bill Turnbull to
Retire
After a three decade career with Chubb, Bill Turnbull will retire at the end of 2018.
Mr. Turnbull joined Chubb in 1985 as a Professional Associate and
thereafter held various positions of increasing responsibility

end of the year to ensure a smooth transition.
In his most recent role as head of North American Property

initiatives that have helped further define Chubb's claims service
platform as the top performer in the industry, and effectively led
