Willis hires HSBC CFO

Broker Willis has appointed John Greene, formerly of HSBC, as group chief financial officer. He will succeed Michael Neborak, who was appointed in 2010.

He will report to Willis Group CEO Dominic Casserley and will join Willis on or before June 2, 2014.

Greene joins Willis after more than eight years with HSBC Holdings, where he served as CFO for their global Retail Bank and Wealth Management business.

Earlier in his career with HSBC Holdings, John was CFO for HSBC Insurance and CFO for the Consumer & Mortgage Lending business. Prior to HSBC, he served at GE for twelve years in various roles including CFO for GE Global Business Finance.

Casserley said: "John Greene brings extraordinary financial management experience to the executive team at Willis. He will work alongside leaders across our company to implement the growth strategy that we announced at our investor day last July. I am delighted to welcome John to Willis.

"I want to thank Mike Neborak for his leadership of our finance team and great service to the firm over the past four years. I am grateful to him for continuing to lead the function through this coming period of transition before moving on to his next opportunity."

Greene said: "I am thrilled to join the Willis team. I look forward to playing my part in helping the Group execute its strategic goals of quality client service and long-term performance for shareholders."
