Mark Gilliland to lead division in EMEA region.
Marsh has appointed Mark Gilliland to lead its CS STARS division in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
Gilliland will focus on developing CS STARS’ blue chip client base in the region.
CS STARS delivers software and services to simplify the job of managing enterprise risk, claims and insurance.
Gilliland joins CS STARS from Progress Software, a global infrastructure and applications integration provider, where he was managing director for the UK and Ireland.
He said: “CS STARS’ ethos is to simplify the job of managing enterprise risk for its clients in an increasingly complex and compliance-oriented world.
"The strength of the CS STARS proposition, aligned with Marsh’s global leadership in risk management consulting, uniquely positions us in the market.
"I look forward to engaging with clients and helping them gain new business capabilities to mitigate corporate risk.
“We have access to data as unrivalled as it is comprehensive, tracing incidents, claims and exposure data across multiple industries. We are able to help companies identify where they are sustaining losses and, through Marsh colleagues, advise them on how to mitigate them.
"CS STARS’ industry-leading STARS Enterprise technology platform and data management services deliver the most comprehensive risk management reporting capabilities in the market.”
Jeffrey Markowitz, president of CS STARS, added: “Mark understands how firms can best apply technology to improve their operating margins and gain a competitive advantage. This experience will be invaluable to our existing client base and in attracting new business across the region.”
