SEATTLE–The Property Casualty Insurers Association of America has employed a search firm and should have a new chief executive officer in place shortly, the group's outgoing chairman said yesterday at PCI's annual conference here.
Gerald Whitburn, PCI chair and CEO of Church Mutual Insurance Company, told National Underwriter the group has retained Chicago-based Heidrick & Struggles to fill the post and he expected a “crisp” selection. Asked if this meant a few months, he said yes.
The CEO vacancy occurred when Ernst Csiszar abruptly resigned the post Sept. 30 after some signs he may have had difficulty coping with rival views among the membership on the concept of government support for catastrophe losses.
