Chris Healey has been appointed as the Chief Group Insurance Officer, bringing over two decades of experience in strategic and operational leadership roles. His previous positions at TAL, Swiss Re, and the Australian Taxation Office equip him with a comprehensive understanding of the insurance landscape.

Supporting this initiative, AIA Australia has restructured its group insurance division, introducing several key roles:

• Sujan Yamunarajan assumes the role of Executive General Manager of Growth, leading a newly established division focused on business development, product innovation, and fostering future-focused super fund partnerships.
• Emily Bridger steps in as General Manager of Products and Propositions, collaborating closely with super funds and employers to enhance AIA's group insurance products and services.
• Peter Kelly, with over 20 years of experience in group insurance and digital strategy, joins as Head of Tender Propositions – Growth.
• Wayne Willis Davis leads the newly created Corporate team, aiming to strengthen AIA's corporate partner relationships and engagement.

CEO Damien Mu emphasized the company's vision to make Australia the healthiest and best-protected nation, highlighting the importance of these leadership changes in achieving product excellence and superior member outcomes.

These developments reflect AIA Australia's proactive approach to addressing the evolving needs of the superannuation industry and its members, ensuring the delivery of comprehensive and innovative group insurance solutions.
