NIBA starts search for new CEO
The National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) is looking for a new CEO after the resignation of Phil Kewin.
Mr Kewin, who will depart in April, joined NIBA in 2021 and after a transition period took over the CEO role from Dallas Booth in November that year. Previously he was CEO of the Association of Financial Advisers.
“Phil's impact on NIBA over the past few years cannot be understated,” President Gary Okely said.
“Under Phil's leadership, NIBA successfully responded to the Quality of Advice Review, implemented a new, industry-leading Code of Practice, revitalised engagement with members across Australia, and launched the Insure Your Future initiative.”
NIBA has already initiated an executive search for a new CEO and says it will keep members informed as the process continues.
“While it is disappointing to bid farewell to Phil, we respect his decision, and on behalf of the board, I want to express our sincere appreciation for the immense value he has brought to NIBA,” Mr Okely said.
Mr Kewin says he plans to move to London to be with his partner, who already lives in the UK capital, and will look for his next role there.
