“Sarah is widely recognised as one of the industry’s foremost advisors on the unique risks that the UK health and social care sector currently faces,” said Beresford-Davies. “Her deep understanding of these challenges and opportunities will be crucial in supporting Marsh McLennan’s clients navigate the huge dynamics associated with the UK’s healthcare landscape.”
