Lockton named Paul Bruno to the executive committee of its Southeast operations. Lockton is the world's largest privately held, independent insurance broker.

Bruno has been with Lockton since 2011. During that time, he's provided strategic and tactical leadership for clients and the employee benefits service teams in Lockton's Charlotte office.

"We are delighted to have Paul on the team," said Doug Hutcherson, President of the Southeast operation. "His positive attitude and tireless work ethic will be invaluable as we look to grow and recruit in this region. And it's great to have our Charlotte office represented in this capacity."

Prior to joining Lockton, Bruno spent more than 13 years at Mercer in various roles including Principal.  He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Saint John's University and afterwards played baseball in the Minnesota Twins organization.
