At the same time, we are committed to maintaining an inclusive, diverse and purpose-driven workplace, supporting our unwavering mission of helping make 100 million people financially secure – for the benefit of people and planet.
“These five outstanding individuals and talented leaders perfectly embody the Redington values, and their promotions are an important recognition of their personal growth and success and their everyday contributions to making Redington a leader in our industry, an invaluable partner to our clients, and a fun, rewarding place for us all to work.
I am grateful for all our new Managing Directors have contributed to the business, and I look forward to working with them in their new roles and having them engage more broadly in our firm.”
