EPIC Insurance Brokers and Consultants has added Traci Marquez to its risk management team.
In her new role, Marquez will be responsible for complex risk business development, leveraging her data analytics and project management skills to help clients mitigate liabilities, achieve actuarial reductions, and experience collateral cost improvements through the EPIC minority-led business, Impact Risk Partners.
Marquez joins from a national broker, where she worked for 14 years.
She will report to Marc Kunney and Scott Davis, presidents of EPIC’s National Risk Management and Specialty Practice.
In February, EPIC Insurance Brokers and Consultants named Tom O’Neil as president of EPIC, along with several organisational and restructuring changes across the company.
As part of the changes, O’Neil now works directly with CEO Steve Denton to grow the business across its entire platform.
Previously, O’Neil led the West and Northeast regions and integrated several large acquisitions.
The company also restructured into super regions to Northeast, Midwest/Southeast and West.
For Northeast, Len Scioscia leads as president. Scioscia joined the firm through the Prime Risk Partners acquisition in 2019.
In the Midwest and Southeast, Adam Meyerowitz was appointed president. Meyerowitz also joined via the Prime Risk Partners acquisition and was co-founder and president of the organisation.
For the West, KJ Wagner has taken on the role of president. Wagner joined in 2018 to build EPIC’s presence in the Southwest region and previously held senior leadership positions with Willis Towers Watson.
The restructure also saw Phil Moyles named as chief growth officer and president of financial services and is responsible for driving innovation and organic growth throughout EPIC.
He joined EPIC in 2018 through the acquisition of Vanbridge, where he continues as CEO.
Kunney and Davis co-lead as presidents of national risk management and specialty practice, working closely across the EPIC platform to deliver large account and industry specialty resources to brokers and clients.
Elsewhere, Craig Hasday will continue as president of the national employee benefits practice, while Scott Schanen will continue as president of national employer consulting, focused on consulting for large employers.
Jason Walker was named senior vice president of national placement and carrier relationships. He will oversee the placement of key accounts and develop new and existing relationships with EPIC’s strategic trading partners.
