Sun Life Vietnam has appointed Lay Hoon Tan as its new Chief Executive Officer, the company announced on LinkedIn.
Tan joins Sun Life after a decade-long career at Manulife, where she first joined in Singapore and eventually relocated to Vietnam as its Chief Risk Officer. She brings over two decades of industry experience to her new role, taking on senior and leadership roles for companies such as Aviva, Mercer, and AIA, according to LinkedIn.
