Burnham Benefits has hired Edward Gow, a benefits consultant joining the team's Northern California office.
Burnham is a leading employee benefits consulting and brokerage firm based in California.
Gow will play an integral role in growing Burnham Benefits' business in the region by providing valuable insight and consultation to clients as they structure their employee benefit packages.
With roots in Southern California, Burnham Benefits expanded its operations into Northern California in 2013 and has been bolstering their personnel in the past months to support this growth.
Michael Michalski, Burnham's regional president, said: "Bringing Edward onto our team further develops our growing staff in Northern California. Our team will benefit greatly from his experience in the employee benefits industry, specifically his relationships and prior work with local schools in the Bay Area."
Gow is familiar with presenting cost containment options to groups of all sizes. As a result of his diverse experience, Gow is able to provide details on the risks and nuances for many products, offering Burnham's clients the most comprehensive evaluation of their available options.
Holding previous positions at Alliant Insurance, Andreini & Company and AFIS Insurance Services, Gow has proven to be a client-centric, strategic consultant. His expertise also includes captive benefits programs, a rising trend in the industry.
Gow said: "I was drawn to Burnham Benefits' forward-thinking leaders and commitment to investing in resources for its clients. As an established firm, they have figured out what clients want, which translates into a great product and unparalleled service."
