Media Release
The Board of the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) welcomes the appointment of Angie Zissis of Austbrokers Insurance Member Services (AIMS).
Mr Zissis will replace Glenn Shultz as the AIMS representative, effective 3 October 2019. Mr Shultz recently assumed a position at Steadfast.
NIBA President Eric Harris welcomes Mr Zissis and his wealth of industry experience to the Board: "Angie's appointment ensures we have all the key groups represented which has been invaluable in ensuring NIBA remains the one voice of the industry."
"I am sure Angie will be a great contributor to the work we have ahead of us," says Mr Harris.
NIBA CEO Dallas Booth says he looks forward to working with Mr Zissis on the National Board and related NIBA matters: "Angie is very highly regarded in the Australian intermediated insurance industry, and I am sure he will have a lot to offer the Board as it continues to address Royal Commission recommendations, the Three Year Review in 2022 and other industry issues and challenges."
Mr Zissis, the Managing Director of AUB's Sura underwriting agency business, was recently appointed CEO of AIMS and Group Head of Underwriting and Placement, with continued responsibility for Sura.
He says he is delighted to be joining the NIBA Board of Directors: "The organisation is an important representative voice for brokers, and it plays a significant role in shaping the direction of our industry in Australia."
"I believe my experiences in broking, underwriting and senior leadership over the past 30 years will enable me to make a positive contribution and I'm looking forward to working alongside my new colleagues on the Board," he says.
