Hub International Limited (HUB), headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, appointed Paul Collins as Northeast area president, effective July 1. In this expanded role, Collins will continue to lead HUB Northeast while also assuming responsibility for HUB New England.

Collins has been in the insurance industry for more than 29 years. He began his career as a producer and went on to hold senior leadership roles at national insurance brokerages before joining HUB.

Collins joined HUB in 2017 and has served as president and CEO of HUB Northeast. A series of targeted acquisitions expanded HUB Northeast’s areas of industry and product specialization and broadened HUB’s footprint across the broader Northeast corridor.

Collins deepened specialization across industries, including private equity, healthcare, real estate and construction, and created expanded regional teams to focus on the full suite of HUB solutions, including retirement and private wealth (RPW), professional and executive liability, and complex risk.

Most recently, he has promoted AI as a way to help accelerate producer insights and strengthen client relationships.

The combined Northeast area includes more than 19 offices in HUB Northeast in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, and more than 41 offices in HUB New England in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.
