Professional services firm Aon has announced the appointment of Stéphane Lespérance to the role of president of commercial risk and health solutions in Canada.
As president, Lespérance will report directly to Christine Lithgow – until Lithgow’s retirement at the end of this year. He will be responsible for the day-to-day leadership of the commercial risk and health solutions teams in Canada, working closely with both the Canada and North America leadership teams to “advance a culture of industry leading innovation, client experience and colleague development,” a release said.
Lespérance has 25 years of experience in insurance brokerage and risk management, having spent the last 18 years with Aon, where he has held a number of management roles. He served most recently as executive vice-president of Eastern Canada.
On top of his insurance career, Lespérance is also involved in a number of charitable organizations – specifically those that support the community, sports, and youth.
