Aon will establish an advisory board in Germany from 1 July to streamline operations and support its next growth phase, the consultancy said in a statement this week.
The board will help shape Aon’s future, anticipate market changes, and translate insights into operational measures more quickly, according to the consultancy.
It will focus on client acquisition, building executive partnerships, talent strategy, strategic growth initiatives, and M&A.
Board members include Aon Germany’s deputy chief executive officer and chief broking officer, DACH region, Hartmuth Kremer-Jensen, managing directors Harald Resche and Mark-Dominik Thofern, and CEO DACH Kai Büchter.
The consultancy said the four “experienced leaders” have played a key role in shaping Aon’s development in recent years.
“The establishment of the advisory board creates additional capacity to leverage opportunities in a changing market environment even more effectively. We are creating a body that will support the future operational management of Aon Germany in strategic growth initiatives,” said Büchter.
The board will operate under Aon Holding Deutschland.
Resche and Thofern will join the management board of Aon Holding Deutschland from 1 July, while Kremer-Jensen and Büchter are already managing directors of the holding company.
In July, Büchter will hand over his role as co-managing director of Aon Germany’s commercial risk solutions unit to Marcel Armon, while continuing to lead Aon’s strategic development in Germany, Austria and Switzerland as CEO DACH.
Armon, CEO of Aon Austria since 2021, said: “My goal is to further strengthen our market position by rethinking risks, and offering our clients solutions that are ahead of their time in an increasingly complex world.”
