Aon picks technology leader as CEO of Aon Carrier Link

Broker Aon has appointed Richard Schuyler as chief executive officer of its Aon Carrier Link distribution channel.

In his new role, Schuyler will focus on enabling clients to digitally manage the entire placement process end-to-end in a single platform by leveraging technology to connect Aon’s retail broking organisation with insurers.

Aon Carrier Link uses data and analytics to give buyers greater choice and efficiency of placing the largest and most complex risks. The innovative technology simplifies access, driving actionable insights from data.

Schuyler joined Aon in 2013 and most recently served as global CIO for Aon’s Business Technology Solutions group. He has over 20 years of technology experience across health care, insurance, financial services and consulting.

“Richard is uniquely positioned to lead Aon’s mission of digital placement through Aon Carrier Link, as he has served in a variety of technology leadership and executive roles overseeing IT strategy, application development and operations,” said Michael O’Connor, CEO of Aon Risk Solutions. “His deep understanding of both technology and insurance broking will help us significantly scale and grow Aon Carrier Link.”

O’Connor added: “Aon continues to invest in data and analytics to fuel insights and innovation for our clients. This announcement represents a milestone on our path to transform our client experience through technology, data and analytics. We are committed to more effectively serve our clients now and in the future.”
