The Hartford Appoints Fitzpatrick Senior V.P. for Middle Market

The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. has appointed Sean M. Fitzpatrick to the position of senior vice president of its Middle Market insurance segment.

In his new role, Fitzpatrick will be responsible for managing all of The Hartford’s Middle Market commercial lines business for firms that have annual revenues in excess of $15 million or annual payroll greater than $5 million.

The segment has reported net written premiums of more than $2.25 billion and serves approximately 25,000 business customers with products such as workers’ compensation, property, automobile, liability, umbrella and marine coverages, as well as commercial risk management products and services, according to the insurer.

Fitzpatrick joined The Hartford in 2007 as senior vice president of Strategic Business Development, overseeing overall property/casualty strategy, as well as a range of business development, merger and acquisition, innovation and process improvement activities.

He replaces Stephanie Bush, who is leaving The Hartford after a 20-year career at the company.

Kevin Sanborn, the vice president of strategic initiatives for The Hartford’s property/casualty operations, will assume Fitzpatrick’s former duties on an interim basis until his replacement is named.

Prior to joining The Hartford, Fitzpatrick held positions of increasing responsibility with the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies.
