Iroquois Group has appointed Ken Koehler (pictured) as a regional vice president for its Midwest region.
As regional vice president, Koehler will focus on helping members drive profitable growth throughout the states of Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan. He will also develop the Northwest states for Iroquois, with an initial focus on Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
Koehler has over 28 years of insurance experience in leading both underwriting and sales units. He held leadership positions with Nationwide and Fireman’s Fund early in his career, before holding senior leadership roles at Liberty Mutual. They included serving as president of its Northwest region and senior vice president of distribution for the company’s west division. He later moved to the Midwest in 2018 to serve as vice president of sales and marketing for Encompass – an independent channel brand for Allstate Insurance.
“Not only does Ken bring valuable experience to Iroquois, he also brings a passion for partnership building and developing talent, which made him the perfect candidate for this new position,” said Iroquois Group executive officer Matt Ward.
