Bermuda insurer Argo Group International Holdings Ltd. has appointed Jualian Enoizi to head up Heritage Managing Agency Ltd., Argo's business in the Lloyd's market in London.

Mr. Enoizi will join Heritage from CNA Financial where he was president and chief executive officer of CNA's European operations. He will officially take up his new duties later this year.

Mr. Enoizi has been with CNA for the last seven years, joining in 2002 as country manager for France. He was appointed to the position of president and chief executive officer for CNA Europe in 2005. Prior to working at CNA, Mr. Enoizi served in senior executive roles with AIG Europe and Chubb Insurance Company of Europe.

Argo Group's president and chief executive officer Mark Watson said: "To date, Julian's successful career has been highlighted by transforming a business, which prior to his leadership posted losses year-after-year, into a well run and attractive player in the European property and casualty market. I am delighted to have him joining our executive team and look forward to what he will bring - not only to Heritage - but to Argo Group as a whole."

Heritage's interim CEO, Nick Denniston, will return to his position of chief financial officer.
