TAL has appointed Gavin Teichner to the role of Chief Executive – Individual Life, commencing 1 October 2024.
The insurer says the appointment follows the promotion announced last month of current Chief Executive – Individual Life Fiona Macgregor to the role of Group CEO and Managing Director, commencing 1 October 2024 (see: TAL Appoints New Group CEO).
TAL says that since joining the company in 2009 Teichner has held a number of senior leadership roles. Since 2018, in his current role as Executive General Manager – Individual Life, he has had a broad remit across product development and management, underwriting, pricing and data analytics.
Macgregor says Teichner “…has an enormous breadth and depth of expertise across our Direct-to-consumer and Retail businesses. He is a forward-thinking leader, with a strong focus on product sustainability and ensuring TAL is a great choice for more Australians.”
Teichner says he’s honoured to have the opportunity to lead a team of people focused on delivering TAL’s products and services to customers, financial advisers and corporate partners.
Teichner is an actuary and has an MBA from Kellogg School of Management.
