EPIC Insurance Brokers and Consultants CEO Steve Denton announced organizational and restructuring changes, effective immediately, across the company. The moves are designed to position EPIC to thrive for years to come.
Tom O’Neil has been named President of EPIC and will work directly with Denton to grow the business across its entire platform – from Private Client to Large Complex Risk in both Property & Casualty and Employee Benefits. O’Neil previously led the West and Northeast Regions and integrated several large acquisitions that expanded the overall footprint of EPIC.
In conjunction with leadership changes, the company is being restructured into “Super Regions” in order to provide more consistency and overall organizational strength: Northeast, Midwest/Southeast and West.
Northeast: Len Scioscia will lead as President. Scioscia joined the firm through the Prime Risk Partners acquisition in 2019; he was previously CEO of Cook Maran.
Midwest and Southeast: Adam Meyerowitz will lead as President. Meyerowitz also joined via the Prime Risk Partners acquisition and was Co-founder and President of the organization.
West: KJ Wagner will lead as President. Wagner joined in 2018 to build EPIC’s presence in the Southwest region and previously held senior leadership positions with Willis Towers Watson.
Additional announcements follow:
Chief Growth Officer and President of Financial Services: Phil Moyles has been named to these roles, where his responsibilities will include driving innovation and organic growth throughout EPIC. He joined EPIC in 2018 through the acquisition of Vanbridge, where he continues as CEO.
