Patricia Moon, Chief Executive, UK and Ireland, commented, “It was a great opportunity for Jola to meet our dedicated colleagues face to face and show her appreciation for their contribution to our success”. Jolanta spent the morning meeting people from across the business and hearing about our operations. She was also invited to see one of technician’s vehicles and learn about how we serve our Roadside Assistance customers. Jolanta said: “It was a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the remarkable successes the UK team has achieved, which has been a truly outstanding team effort. “It was also a reminder how important it is for us to listen to our people, so I was happy to encourage participation in Allianz Partners’ engagement survey which will give our colleagues the chance to ensure their voice is heard.” We were delighted to welcome Jola to the UK and look forward to her visiting again! #allianzpartners #oneteam

Very exciting times ahead at Allianz Partners UK and Ireland! #travelinsurance #mobility #allianzpartners
Allianz Insurance announced its half year results in July, with total revenues up 6% and profits up 55%. Allianz Partners UK and Ireland is proud to contribute to the continued growth across the group, driven by expanding operations in the Travel and Mobility sectors Our Travel business has seen double-digit growth this year. New partnerships launched with household brands including TUI and NatWest Group have enabled us to move from strength to strength, with Allianz Partners now the UK’s largest travel insurer. Mobility is an exciting sector that has seen significant innovation in recent years, from the rising popularity of e-bikes and scooters to ‘last mile’ delivery solutions. Allianz Partners embraces the modern idea of mobility – encompassing more than simply cars, planes and trains – and is developing its capabilities in the mobility insurance space where we provide Personal Accident and Third Party Liability cover to our partners’ customers. Elsewhere in Mobility, the insured Warranty business continues to thrive as cars bought post-COVID enter the market for extended warranties. Heightened demand is driven in part by the cost-of-living crisis causing some customers to keep their cars longer, and in part by others keen to ensure they are protected against unexpected large costs. The warranties we offer, in partnership with a number of leading OEMs, provide customers with peace of mind that they can keep moving. Our successes are in no small part due to our excellent, dedicated staff who continue to go the extra mile for customers and help them navigate the trickiest of situations, from medical repatriations to their vehicle breaking down on the motorway. And to complement our people, we take an industry-leading approach to implementing new technologies. We’ve wholeheartedly embraced the AI revolution – including with our adoptees in Travel claims named Edith and Florence! These AI bots swiftly handle standard claims, freeing up human resource to help customers where they need it most. As autumn is now upon us and the new year not so far off, Allianz Partners is committed to continue expanding its Travel and Mobility offerings through Q4 and into 2025. We have an exciting partnerships pipeline and look forward to working with even more leading UK travel and mobility businesses – more news on this to follow shortly!

Can't wait to hear Alex's keynote address at #InnovateTHIS2024! Hope to see you there! #travelinsurance #futureoftravel
We’re excited to share that Alex Hunter will deliver his keynote address at INNOVATE THIS 2024 on ‘The Art and Science of Innovating the Customer Experience’ Alex will delve into the challenge of getting consumers to buy #travelinsurance, shifting the perception from ‘What am I going to do with this?’ to ‘What would I do without you?’ He’ll explore how storytelling is key to building loyalty and why #innovation needs to go beyond technology – recognising that behind every click is a human being. Travel is emotional, and our approach to customer experience should reflect that. Alex Hunter previously held the position of Global Head of Digital for the Virgin Group, where he curated the entire Virgin brand’s global digital strategy, including Sir Richard Branson’s personal digital strategy. Now, he helps some of the world's largest brands to elevate their #customerexperience and branding, while inspiring audiences worldwide with his high-energy sessions.
