Howden has appointed Rob Brown (pictured) as head of employee benefits, Howden Markets.
Brown’s remit will be to lead the development of a clear, scalable market proposition, bringing greater consistency and negotiation strength across global, regional and local markets, and support Howden’s T20 strategy.
He joins Howden to enhance its work with insurers in delivering leading employee benefits programmes worldwide.
Working with Howden colleagues and insurer connections he will use his experience to develop Howden’s global financing and captive programme for employee benefits — helping clients access more coordinated, effective structures, particularly those headquartered in the US with international programmes.
He brings nearly 25 years’ experience across employee benefits and insurance, and joins from Zurich Insurance Group where hh held senior roles including most recently head of corporate life and pensions for the Middle East.
He will report jointly to Toby Pollard, managing director and head of Howden Markets, and Glenn Thomas, CEO and global practice leader, health and employee benefits.
