Risk Strategies, a Boston-based national specialty insurance brokerage and risk management and consulting firm, has appointed Marshall Heron as national real estate practice leader.
In his new role, Heron will be responsible for partnering with regional and practice leadership to drive growth strategies, enhance the associate and client experience, strengthen key market relationships, and support intentional integration and talent recruiting efforts.
Heron has over 25 years of insurance brokerage experience, with most of his career focused on the real estate industry. He was previously president of Insurance Group of America, and earlier in his career he served as a strategic leader for Lockton Companies in their global real estate practice. Heron holds his property and casualty insurance license as well as a bachelor’s degree in psychology and economics from Rutgers University.
“Marshall’s tenure in the industry, combined with his strategic leadership and client-first approach, will help us enhance our superior client experience while protecting their ever-evolving real estate exposures,” said John Scroope, national director of operations at Risk Strategies. “We welcome Marshall to Risk Strategies.”
“The dynamics of the marketplace over the past few years have led to an incredibly challenging time for owners and operators of commercial real estate,” said Heron. “I look forward to collaborating closely with my colleagues to build upon the existing expertise and resources of the organization, in continuing to refine a best-in-class practice and serve as a trusted advisor and advocate for our clients.”
