Alliant Insurance Services has appointed Chris Murphy as Executive Vice President, Managing Director.

He brings 30 years of experience in the insurance industry, with a deep expertise in construction.

In his new role, Murphy will lead Alliant’s national surety platform that supports the bonding needs of domestic and international contractor clients.

The founding partners of Alliant’s Construction Services Group, Peter Arkley, Richard Ferrucci and Michael Cusack, have expressed their excitement and are in agreement that Murphy is a progressive thought leader in the surety construction space.

“His decision to join Alliant shows the dedication we have to the construction industry and underscores Alliant being the broker of choice for premier industry talent,” a spokesman said.

Prior to joining Alliant, Murphy served as Chief Underwriting Officer at Travelers Surety, having started his insurance career at Aetna.

He has held senior roles in field offices in New England and the Midwest, eventually working his way up to the Travelers headquarters in Hartford, CT where he held various underwriting roles for 20 years.
