Corgi Insurance, an AI-native insurance carrier built for high-growth companies, has announced the appointment of James Kullman as Head of Underwriting, North America.
In his new role, Kullman will lead efforts to advance commercial underwriting across North America, leveraging AI to improve risk selection, develop underwriting guidelines, strengthen portfolio management and support regulatory compliance.
He will focus on combining traditional underwriting expertise with AI-assisted tools and processes to help make commercial insurance more efficient, responsive and accessible.
Kullman brings nearly 15 years of experience in commercial insurance underwriting and management, with expertise spanning risk assessment, portfolio management, product development and underwriting strategy.
He joins Corgi from Chubb, where he served as Assistant Vice President and Pacific North Region Underwriting Manager for the North American Small and Lower Middle Market.
Prior to joining Chubb, Kullman held underwriting roles at CNA Insurance, The Hartford and Liberty Mutual Insurance, working across construction, middle-market accounts and property and casualty insurance.
Kullman commented, “Commercial insurance has relied on many of the same processes for decades. AI gives us an opportunity to rethink how underwriting works, from how we evaluate risk to how quickly we can deliver a quote.
“I’m excited to bring my experience in traditional underwriting to a team that is building new technology and infrastructure for the industry.”
