Rapidly growing insurance brokerage Relation Insurance Services (Relation) has appointed its president, Tim Hall, as its new CEO.

Hall replaces Joe Tatum, who will remain a member of Relation’s board.

A seasoned insurance and financial services leader, Hall played a leading role in Relation’s strategic growth initiatives, the company said. He is also responsible for the company’s performance management, carrier management/broking, information technology, human resources, and legal functions.

In his new role, Hall will continue to guide and execute the strategy that has led to Relation’s growth as a national brokerage with 1,300 employees.

“I’m thrilled to assume this leadership role and continue working with our outstanding team in building a premier insurance brokerage platform with meaningful national scale, deep capabilities across products, and a diverse book of business,” Hall said.

“We have an incredibly strong business, a committed capital partner, and a winning strategy, and I’m looking forward to keeping the momentum going and delivering for our clients.”

Since joining Relation in 2019, Hall has held executive roles of increasing seniority, such as executive vice president and head of mergers and acquisitions (M&A), before being promoted to president.

“Tim is an accomplished leader who has proven he has what it takes to lead Relation as it continues its robust growth,” commented Jeff Greenberg, chairman of Relation and chairman of Aquiline Capital Partners, the private equity firm that acquired Relation in 2019.

“Since Aquiline first invested in Relation, Tim has been instrumental in its transformation from a firm focused on select markets to a nationwide market leader with a proven ability to serve as an excellent partner to clients and carriers,” Greenberg continued.

“Relation’s business model has proven itself year over year, and we are committed to supporting Tim and the company with any resources needed as they continue to seize the significant market opportunity ahead of them.”

Tatum said: “I am grateful to have spent over twelve years with this great company and deeply honored to have had the opportunity to lead it. I am extremely proud of our employees and their unwavering commitment to take care of our clients. Given the strength of our people and culture, I believe the company is well-positioned for the years ahead. I am confident that Tim and the entire team will continue to make Relation one of the strongest insurance brokerages in the country.”

Hall added: “I want to thank Joe for his years of partnership and what he has achieved in establishing Relation as one of the top insurance brokerages in the country.”
