Gallagher Bassett appoints Simon Pemberton as UK Chief Executive Officer
Effective April 1st 2018, Simon Pemberton will assume the position of CEO, Gallagher Bassett UK.
Current GB UK Managing Director, Nick Bonser, has announced his intentions to retire from the business after 15 years of service. Noting his strong belief that GB is poised for a period of rapid growth, Nick feels that now is the time to deploy the robust succession plan GB already has in place. He intends to stay on until June 2018, to ensure a smooth transition.
Jon Winsbury, Executive Vice President of Gallagher Bassett International, said: “Simon has been a strong leader within the UK business for a long time. He has worked his way up through the ranks in both operational and sales functions, so he has a very strong understanding of all facets of our business. Simon has excellent relationships with our clients, teammates and the wider broker and carrier markets and the total confidence of our UK and global leadership.
Jon added: “He will build on Nick’s successes while developing new pathways for growth and excellence in claims management and customer service. I wish Nick and Simon all the best as they move into their new roles and life stages.”
