Aon re-shuffles leadership team
Re/insurance broker Aon has made several leadership appointments in its client solutions unit in the US in a move to “enhance global broking capabilities” for clients.
Warren Mula assumes the newly created global role of president of Aon Risk Solutions. He will serve as strategic advisor across the business. Mula most recently served as chief executive officer (CEO) for Aon Broking and will continue to support the broking agenda. Prior to this role, Mula served as chairman of Aon Risk Solutions, US, where he oversaw client service management activities.
Tom Fitzgerald becomes CEO of Aon Broking. Fitzgerald previously led the Aon Risk Solutions US retail business as CEO. In his new role, he will be responsible for driving innovative solutions with market partners, and further globalising the firm’s broking capabilities.
Previously, Fitzgerald served as chief broking officer for Aon’s US commercial risk, president of Aon Private Risk Management and spearheaded Aon’s entry into the technology industry with the creation of the Aon Risk Solutions Technology Practice.
With Fitzgerald’s move to Aon Broking, two veteran executives will lead the Aon Risk Solutions US retail business moving forward: Lori Goltermann as CEO and Steve Keogh as president. Together, Goltermann and Keogh will continue driving growth across the US retail business.
Goltermann has held various leadership positions with Aon, including mergers and acquisitions practice leader, St Louis office leader, account executive practice leader and, most recently, US health and benefits practice leader.
Keogh most recently served as chief administrative officer, Aon Risk Solutions, and head of human resources for Aon Risk Solutions Americas. Prior to that role, Keogh served as Aon Risk Solutions US head of human resources, and was instrumental in developing the strategic talent agenda implemented by the business today.
Will Sneden becomes US health and benefits practice leader.
“In their new roles, these five talented leaders will continue to inspire our colleagues as we further integrate our capabilities to empower results for clients,” said Mike O’Connor, chief executive officer of Aon Risk Solutions.
“We are committed to building on our industry-leading broking capabilities and believe that Tom’s recent experience leading our US retail business will help accelerate the global agenda established under Warren’s leadership.”
“Lori and Steve have been successful leaders throughout their long careers at Aon. Both have incredibly deep knowledge of our firm, our capabilities and the people who set us apart from our competitors. We have built tremendous momentum within ARS US retail and I am confident this will continue with Lori and Steve helping to lead the way.”
