Willis Towers Watson has hired Paul Devitt as director in its global services and solutions consultancy practice, where he will focus on employee benefit captive consulting.
Based in London, Devitt joins from Aon Risk Solutions where he specialised in global benefits consultancy for more than 15 years.
Devitt will work across all areas of Willis Towers Watson’s global services and solutions consultancy team, but he also has expertise in employee benefit captive consulting, an area in which the firm says it has grown to become the largest global adviser.
Willis Towers Watson advises on the assessment, set-up and ongoing support of more than three-quarters of the world’s employee benefit captive vehicles.
Mark Cook, director in Willis Towers Watson’s global services and solutions team, said: “We are delighted to welcome Paul Devitt into our global services and solutions team, which has led the way in employee benefit captive consulting for many years now.”
“Paul’s expertise in this area, as well as in wider global benefit consulting, will be invaluable in continuing to grow this area of the business as more clients start to explore and implement captive insurance vehicles for employee benefits as part of a wider integrated risk management programme.”
