Aon on Thursday announced the appointment of Emma Crookes as Global Head of its insurance vertical. Crookes has been with the global broker for over 11 years and prior to her promotion led Aon’s UK insurance vertical.

In her new role, she will work closely with Joe Peiser, CEO of Commercial Risk Solutions, and Lambros Lambrou, CEO of Human Capital, to integrate the insurance vertical across all solution lines and regions, Aon says.

She will collaborate with over 20 segment teams across five regions globally to identify common themes in insurer segments and deliver solutions tailored to clients’ strategic goals. Crookes also joins the global growth committee of Reinsurance Solutions in line with her expanded responsibilities.

Andy Marcell, CEO of Reinsurance Solutions and Risk Capital for Aon, commented on the importance of the role: “Our insurance vertical recognizes that (re)insurance firms can be complex, multi-territory businesses, with needs that often go beyond transactional solutions. In her new role, Emma will bring even more Aon capabilities to clients, across commercial risk, reinsurance, health, wealth and talent, helping them to shape better decisions and achieve profitable growth.”
