The former head of Aon UK’s insurance vertical, Emma Crookes, has taken on greater responsibilities as the new global head of Aon’s insurance vertical division.

In her new role, Crookes will enhance Aon’s client leadership model to ensure coordinated support for insurers across the firm. She will collaborate with over 20 segment teams across five regions to identify common themes and develop deeper insights, leading to more relevant solutions aligned with clients’ strategic goals. Additionally, she will join the global growth committee of Reinsurance Solutions to foster collaboration and drive results.

Crookes will work closely with Joe Peiser, CEO of Commercial Risk Solutions and executive sponsor of the insurance vertical, as well as Lambros Lambrou, CEO of Human Capital at Aon, to integrate the insurance vertical across all solutions and regions.

“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,” said Andy Marcell, Aon’s CEO of Reinsurance Solutions and Risk Capital.

Aon’s insurance vertical encompasses capabilities in commercial risk, reinsurance, health, wealth, and talent.

In addition to traditional services, Aon’s insurance clients often seek support with macro trends such as talent retention, cyber risk, digital transformation, climate change, and ESG. To address these evolving needs, Crookes manages Aon’s Client Advisory Boards, which provide a platform for leaders to network and discuss emerging challenges.

“Emma’s successful track record in leading the UK insurance vertical and her collaborative approach are crucial for helping our insurer clients achieve their growth objectives,” Peiser said.
