Aon has appointed an assistant manager for its Marine Global Practice Group.
The broker said Panagiotis Tsakos will be responsible for building relationships with Aon's global offices to share industry information around the network.
Prior to joining Aon, Tsakos worked in creditor insurance for six years.
In his new role, he will be assisting the chairman of Aon's Marine Global Practice Group, Steve Allum.
Tsakos said: “This is my opportunity to dispel the myth that a global broker can't provide excellent local service and demonstrate Aon's commitment to the maritime industry by investing considerable resources to build even stronger relationships through an increased presence in all the major markets.”
