Aon plc, a global professional services firm, has appointed Emma Crookes as the new global head of the insurance vertical. This vertical aims to provide re/insurance clients with tailored solutions to help them achieve their strategic goals and make better business decisions.
Crookes, who previously led Aon’s UK insurance vertical, will now focus on developing Aon’s client leadership model to ensure a coordinated approach in delivering capabilities to insurers worldwide. She will collaborate with more than 20 segment teams across five regions to identify common themes and provide deeper insights and relevant solutions aligned with clients’ strategic objectives. Additionally, she will be part of the global growth committee of Reinsurance Solutions to drive collaboration and results.
Working closely with Joe Peiser, CEO of Commercial Risk Solutions, and Lambros Lambrou, CEO of Human Capital, Crookes will integrate the insurance vertical across all solution lines and regions. This vertical acknowledges that re/insurance firms need a range of services, including strategic, transactional, and advisory, to address their diverse business needs related to growth, capital, operational efficiency, and talent.
Andy Marcell, CEO of Reinsurance Solutions, emphasized the importance of understanding and responding to client needs effectively. He highlighted that Aon’s insurance vertical will offer a comprehensive set of capabilities across various areas, such as commercial risk, reinsurance, health, wealth, and talent, to assist clients in making informed decisions and achieving profitable growth.
In addition to traditional services, Aon’s insurance clients often require support in navigating macro trends like talent retention, cyber risk, digital transformation, climate change, and ESG. The firm’s Client Advisory Boards, overseen by Crookes, play a crucial role in gathering insights and providing a platform for industry leaders to discuss emerging challenges.
Peiser noted that through the insurance vertical, clients can expect more stable results, optimized capital utilization, and profitable growth. Emma Crookes’ leadership and collaborative approach are seen as essential in helping insurer clients achieve their strategic objectives and drive global success.
