Gallagher CEO announces exit

Arthur J Gallagher’s Australian CEO Andrew Godden is leaving to become the new CEO of Australia for BMS Group.

UK-based specialist insurance and reinsurance broker BMS has a small but growing Australian presence, and sees the appointment of Mr Godden as a key milestone in its regional development.

Mr Godden will be based in Sydney and report directly to BMS Group CEO Nick Cook. He will begin the new role after completing contractual obligations to Arthur J Gallagher.

“Andrew’s appointment will further enhance the significant reach BMS has been developing in Australia and across the Asia Pacific region, which is based on its commitment to offering its clients an individually focused level of service,” BMS said in a statement.
