Marsh names Andrew Neary CEO of newly combined East Region

NEW YORK, October 1, 2026 — Marsh, a leading global professional services firm, today announced that Andrew Neary will serve as CEO of Marsh Agency’s newly combined East region, bringing together the former East and Northeast regions, representing approximately 1,360 colleagues, under a single, unified leadership and operating structure, effective immediately. Mr. Neary will be based in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, and will continue to report to Matt Stadler, President, Marsh Agency.

Prior to this expanded role, Mr. Neary led the former East region for five years. The newly combined East Region now includes New York, New Jersey, New England, and the broader Northeast.

Mr. Neary will oversee client service, sales, and operations across the combined region. He will be responsible for aligning talent, resources, and capabilities from both legacy regions, simplifying the operating model, and setting the strategic direction for a region that now spans some of the most dynamic markets in the country, from Maine to Pennsylvania. 

“Under Andrew’s leadership, the East region built one of the strongest operating models and cultures in our business, and I have every confidence that he and his team will do the same for our newly combined region, to the benefit of our colleagues and, most importantly, our clients,” said Mr. Stadler.

Merging the regions will deliver a deeper bench of expertise and broader in-house capabilities for clients, combining industry specialists and local market knowledge from both legacy regions, while client service teams largely maintain the structures and relationships clients know today.

“The two legacy regions complement each other really well,” said Mr. Neary. “Both have strong in-house expertise and deep client relationships. By bringing our teams and capabilities together, we have a real opportunity to build something stronger than what existed separately and to deliver even greater value to the clients and colleagues we serve across the East and Northeast.”
