CII appoints new President

LONDON, 08 October 2020

The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) has appointed the Aon UK chief executive Julie Page as its president.

Julie Page has worked within the insurance industry for more than 30 years with clients across all segments, including Consumer, SME, UK and Global Corporate. She was appointed CEO of Aon UK Ltd in 2018 and directly leads Aon’s UK Commercial Risk, Health and Affinity businesses.

Julie is a member of the CBI President’s Committee, a member of the FCA Practitioner Panel and an industry champion for diversity and inclusion, previously holding roles as a committee member of Inclusion@Lloyd’s and the Dive In Festival. Additionally, Julie was a Non-Executive Board Director at BIBA, as the Chair of one of its Advisory Boards, and more latterly as Deputy Chair until standing down in July 2019.

In 2017 Julie was a recipient of a Business Insurance ‘EMEA Women to Watch’ award.

Ms Page said “At any time, it would be a privilege to be appointed as president of the CII; but now, with the unprecedented health crisis and economic interruption caused by COVID-19, the need for us to continue to focus on trust in our products and services increases both the privilege and responsibility I feel in accepting this honour.

“The opportunity to work with the best minds from all sides of our profession, to gain recognition of the valuable work that we already do, and to find ways to accelerate our efforts to respond to customer needs is something I am extremely excited about.”

Also at the AGM, Peter Blanc was appointed to the role of deputy president. Peter is Group CEO of insurance brokers Aston Lark, and non-executive chairman at Hastings Insurance Services Ltd.
