We’re delighted to announce that Natasha Cochrane of Zurich International is our new Champions’ Champion. Taking the reins from Joanna Bayle-Kiernan (Fidelity International) and Charlotte Barham (formerly Utmost Group) who previously led the group, Natasha commented:
“I’m really looking forward to this exciting opportunity and to working more closely with the Champions.
As an industry, we are facing tremendous change whether it’s the ever-growing rate of digitisation or the shift in customer behaviours and expectations as a result of that change. I see AILO as a way for us to come together as industry professionals, to share best practice, share learnings and most importantly, to support one another.
As AILO Champions, we have an opportunity to influence the future of our industry and for me, that is an inspiring thought and one that I hope you share too!”
Welcome Natasha! We’re really looking forward to working with you!
