In addition, she will work closely with all other PRS teams across the division and the regional field administration leaders to advance the division’s sales goals.

Parsons joined Chubb as a Personal Lines Underwriter in 1998, and since then has held various leadership roles in sales and distribution, including Personal Lines Manager in various locations in the United States; Field Sales Manager, where she was responsible for leading sales efforts and results in a variety of US geographies; Sales Program Manager, where she was responsible for advancing distribution strategy, including building and aligning resources with top growth opportunity agents; and, most recently, PRS Sales Practice Leader, where she was responsible for creating and driving national sales tactics to improve sales results.

Parsons will be based in Whitehouse Station, N.J., and will report to Ana Robic, Chief Operating Officer, North America Personal Risk Services.

“Her leadership will be instrumental in helping our agents and brokers to succeed in growing their businesses, and spearheading efforts around Chubb’s next phase of growth in North America. Mary exemplifies the deep bench of talent we have at Chubb, and I look forward to working with her to further broaden our marketplace presence and the value we provide.”
