Saying goodbye to full-time employment, Lockton head of benefits Mike Tyler will be succeeded by two senior vice presidents.

Come May 01, Jon Green and Chris Rofe are jointly assuming leadership responsibilities for Lockton’s UK and international benefits practice. Tyler, meanwhile, will continue working with the insurance broker on a consulting basis.

“I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to truly build something great here at Lockton,” commented Tyler, who was responsible for establishing the benefits business in the UK and overseeing the development of the global benefits operations. “Over the last five years we have brought together a best-in-class team to offer unparalleled guidance to our clients. I leave the team in capable hands and look forward to watching it continue to grow.”

Green and Rofe, who described the retiring executive as an industry pioneer, each bring to their new role over two decades of experience and expertise in health and productivity.

Lockton partner Ian Cooper, meanwhile, is taking over Tyler’s global leadership duties and will be in charge of benefits growth and development across the firm’s international businesses outside the US.
