WTW has announced Royston Tan’s promotion to head of health & benefits (H&B) for the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
In his elevated role, Tan will spearhead the APAC division, focusing on enhancing corporate healthcare, employee wellbeing, and benefits programme advisory. This includes overseeing the development, implementation, and management of these initiatives.
Who is Royston Tan?
Tan brings over 25 years of experience in employee benefits and life insurance to his new role, particularly in advising multinational clients on designing, delivering, and managing their benefits programs in the APAC region. His tenure at WTW spans over six years, during which he has held various leadership positions. Prior to joining WTW, Tan served in leadership roles at several international firms.
Before his current appointment, Tan oversaw WTW’s H&B businesses in Southeast Asia and India. His responsibilities extended to leading sales and commercialisation strategies for WTW’s H&B international business, covering not just APAC but also Central Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.
“APAC is an important region of growth for our business. It is also one where workforce demographics are changing rapidly and employers are facing many interconnected people and business risks,” he said.

“With Royston’s visionary leadership capabilities and expertise in navigating complex market dynamics, as well as leading diverse team, I am confident that he will continue to further strengthen our position in APAC.
