The Hanover Insurance Group recently announced that it has strengthened its presence in Wisconsin, naming Andrew R. Knipfer, CPCU, ARM, regional vice president for commercial lines. In this role, Knipfer will oversee all aspects of commercial lines business for the company’s Wisconsin territory.
Knipfer will work out of The Hanover’s Milwaukee, Wis. office and succeeds John Scott, who now will focus his efforts exclusively on the company’s Illinois market.
Knipfer previously served as commercial lines branch manager for The Hanover’s Grand Rapids, Mich. territory. Prior to that, Knipfer was commercial lines underwriting manager for The Hanover’s Great Lakes territory, also in Michigan.
Knipfer joined The Hanover in 2004, coming from Harleysville Insurance, where he served as branch underwriting manager in several different Michigan offices. Prior to Harleysville, he was a property account executive for standard commercial accounts at Aetna Life and Casualty.
For Knipfer, his appointment also is a homecoming, as he was born in Milwaukee and grew up in Grafton, Wis.
