Sedgwick names new CEO for Ireland
Sedgwick, a provider of technology-enabled business solutions in the risk and benefits services space, has appointed Malcolm Hughes as chief executive officer of its operations in Ireland.
Hughes has more than 30 years of insurance and industry experience in Ireland and overseas markets, including North America, Middle East, South America and Europe. He co-founded and was previously CEO of Outsource Services Group (OSG); OSG was acquired by Sedgwick in 2016. He is a former president of the Insurance Institute of Dublin and the Insurance Institute of Ireland and former chairman of the executive committee of the Insurance Institute of Ireland.
Hughes will lead the company’s Irish business development efforts and support the consolidation of Cunningham Lindsey, which was recently acquired by Sedgwick, with OSG Vericlaim in Ireland under the Sedgwick brand name.
“Ireland is a major player in Sedgwick’s international business, and Malcolm Hughes is the ideal person to lead our growing business there,” said Ian Muress, Sedgwick’s CEO of international. “His reputation for overseeing the delivery of a broad portfolio of services to financial and insurance companies is unparalleled, and his expertise will be instrumental as we continue to produce outstanding results and serve our customers with the exceptional support they have come to expect.”
