Lockton Appoints U.S. Chief Growth Officer 

Lockton, the world’s largest privately held independent insurance brokerage, has appointed Hiram Marrero President, Chief Growth Officer for its U.S. operations.

In this newly established role, Marrero will support Lockton’s U.S. growth strategy, aligned to geographical and industry expansion, and other initiatives that will advance the national business.

Marrero will work closely with Tim Ryan, Lockton’s U.S. President, and will partner with regional CEOs, COOs, and other leaders to strategically grow the business across the U.S.

“Hiram has been a key contributor to Lockton’s industry-leading organic growth, both globally and across the U.S., and I am excited for him to take on this elevated role,” said Ryan. “His passion and leadership will help us continue to attract and develop the very best talent in the industry.”

Marrero, who has 25 years of insurance industry experience, joined Lockton in 2016. He has played a key role in the firm’s growth, with a focus on recruiting, onboarding, and developing top talent, and he is passionate about growing Lockton's business by cultivating the firm’s unique, people-first culture.

“The bedrock of Lockton’s persistent growth is our outstanding culture, which is purpose-built around clients, Associates and communities. By putting these three stakeholders first, we are creating the best place to do business and to work,” said Marrero. “I look forward to collaborating with leaders across our U.S. operations to develop strategies that grow our business while also making our clients' businesses better.”

Marrero is based in Miami, Florida
