Aon Benfield hires accident, health and life boss

Aon Benfield has appointed a former head of pricing at Swiss Re as director of the firm’s accident, health and life team.

Colin Dutkiewicz will be based in London and will report to Roger Smith, head of Aon Benfield’s accident, health and life team. At Swiss Re, he spent five years in the roles of head of pricing (Africa), client markets director (UK & Ireland), and most recently global corporate actuary.

The Aon Benfield accident, health, and life team in London has recently been restructured into a single team focused on bringing a broad range of innovate products and services to its clients.

Smith said: “During this dynamic period of change for our clients and markets, we are excited to have Colin join our team. Colin’s extensive experience in life business and his solid relationships within the UK life market will assist our business strategy, while his client service ethic is well matched to the Aon Client Promise.

“We are proud to have him as a representative of Aon Benfield in the marketplace as he helps to grow Aon’s life presence. We have identified a number of opportunities to support our clients in sustaining their growth plans, and they will benefit from the insight and advocacy that Colin and the entire team will deliver.”
