Willis Towers Watson appoints senior consultant
Willis Towers Watson has appointed Heloise Rossouw as senior consultant to lead the growth of its life insurance management consultancy (IMC).
According to the Willis Towers Watson, her UK and international expertise in both the insurance and banking sectors will be a significant asset in this senior-client facing role.
This follows the recent appointment of Marcus Bowser to the position of UK life sales and practice leader as the team continues to expand its UK Life business.
Within the IMC team, Rossouw will be responsible for developing new strategies to ensure life insurers have access to bespoke products and services that reflect their individual needs, as the sector continues to face a volatile risk environment, exacerbated by regulatory change, a modest global growth outlook and persistently low interest rates.
Roussow has over 13 years of experience specialising in life actuarial work.
She has worked across a wide range of actuarial, risk and strategic roles, both within the industry and consulting.
She most recently worked at Old Mutual, where she helped to develop the company’s group strategy and business plan.
“We are delighted Heloise is joining our team. Her considerable business-development and relationship-management experience will be a major asset and instrumental in strengthening our client offering. The whole team very much looks forward to working with Heloise as we continue to build and consolidate Willis Towers Watson’s market-leading presence in the life insurance sector,” said Claire Farrelly, RCS EMEA life sales and practice leader for Willis Towers Watson.
Rossouw commented: “Willis Towers Watson’s Life practice is highly regarded throughout the industry and I am thrilled to be joining this team. This is both a difficult and exciting period for the UK life insurance industry, which is in the middle of a fundamental transformation, and I look forward to working with our clients to help them identify opportunities for profitable growth during these challenging times.”
