Aon has appointed Jenny Wiles as UK investment head of transitions within its investment team.
In her new role, Wiles will lead Aon’s UK transitions capability, setting strategic direction and overseeing the delivery of complex transitions, including buy-in and buy out related activity. She will work closely with clients and internal investment teams to support high quality, well controlled outcomes at key points in the investment lifecycle.
Wiles brings over 15 years’ experience across investment operations, trade management and pension transitions. She joins Aon from WTW, where she led complex and time critical transition and onboarding projects for pension schemes and institutional investors across multiple asset classes.
Steve Garner, partner at Aon, said: “Jenny brings deep specialist expertise in transitions and investment operations, along with a strong track record of delivering complex projects under pressure. As managing transition risk at critical moments remains a key focus for institutional investors, this capability is more important than ever.
“Jenny’s experience and leadership will further enhance our UK transitions capability, and I am delighted to welcome her to the team.”
