The UBA Board has selected Thomas Mangan, an insurance industry leader with more than 20 years of experience in the employee benefit marketplace, to serve as chief executive officer, effective immediately.
As announced at UBA’s Spring Meeting earlier this week, Thom will take over the role and duties of Bill Howell, UBA’s president, who is retiring after nearly 10 years of service to the organization.
Most recently, Thom served as a regional president for USI Insurance Services, one of the eight largest insurance brokerage firms in the nation. Thom also has worked as president of the employee benefits division of HUB International Limited and as South-Central employee benefits practice leader at Willis.
Thom has served on a number of advisory boards and councils, such as the Council of Employee Benefit Executives, the Industry Affairs Committee and on the national consultant advisory boards of several carriers, including CIGNA, Aetna and UnitedHealthcare.
Thom expects to do a lot of traveling over the next several months to personally meet with UBA Member Firms.
