Aetna International welcomes Caroline Pain, Head of International Marketing and Gary Impett, Business Development Manager, to further develop its insurance business within continental Europe, the UK and Ireland.
Both individuals bring a wealth of expertise to their respective roles. Caroline and Gary will work to enhance Aetna’s growth in 2013 by developing its client offering and business development goals across the international private medical insurance business.
Caroline joins the Aetna team following previous roles at Aviva and Norwich Union. At Aviva, Caroline directed the UK marketing activity and was accountable for a team of over 60 people across several locations in the UK. Gary has over 20 years’ client management experience in the healthcare industry where he successfully developed and managed a Private Medical Insurance portfolio of £30m. As Principal Consultant he was instrumental in developing health and risk frameworks for employees to enable them to effectively manage their health, as well as, efficiently manage multiple budgets.
Caroline and Gary are the latest in a series of senior hires at the company, joining David Healy, General Manager for Europe and Nic Brown, Head of Sales for Aetna International, who arrived at Aetna at the start of 2012, and more recently Marco Bannerman who joined as Head of Global Partner Sales and Mike Lewars, Head of UK Intermediary Sales, who were both added to the Aetna team in June this year.
David Healy, General Manager for Europe, said, “I am pleased to welcome both Caroline and Gary to Aetna. They both have a deep knowledge of the healthcare industry and a great track record in driving growth and boosting sales performance. With many UK corporations seeking growth further afield and moving into new markets, and with existing employees traveling overseas more than ever, the international private medical insurance sector continues to go from strength-to-strength.”
He continues, “The health insurance sector is undergoing tremendous change at present. Providers need to be able to adapt and communicate their offerings clearly in a crowded marketplace. We have been investing in strengthening our team, clearly demonstrating our commitment to our customers and clients and putting them at the centre of everything we do.”
