ORLANDO, FL – (August 1, 2024) – AssuredPartners (“AP”), a leading global insurance brokerage, has named Greg LaMair as Executive Vice President, Head of Mergers and Acquisitions. LaMair has most recently served as EVP, Retail Mergers and Acquisitions, after four years as the Great Plains Region President for the organization.

LaMair, the former CEO of LMC, a top 75 insurance brokerage firm that joined AP in 2020, excelled in driving both organic and inorganic growth, and gained valuable experience in the M&A space.

In his new role, LaMair will oversee M&A teams across four divisions within the global AP organization and guide the overall M&A strategy to identify and execute acquisitions to support corporate growth goals.

“Our company has reached remarkable milestones in a relatively short amount of time, largely thanks to the strategic efforts and results of our M&A team,” said Randy Larsen, CEO of AssuredPartners. “Greg LaMair has more than 30 years of experience in the insurance industry, and he will continue to expand our ‘Power through Partnership’ and grow AP.”

“AP’s leadership created a strong, strategic vision to grow the company while providing best-in-class services to our clients,” said LaMair. “That direction helped us reach milestones that will fuel the momentum and our drive work to continue creating value for companies looking to grow with us in the future. And with a new team of leaders in place on the M&A front, I look forward to developing new partnerships.”

LaMair oversees the M&A leadership team which includes Brady Gallagher, who moves into the position of Director of Mergers and Acquisitions for the retail side of the business, as well as Mike Kish, Chief Acquisition Officer on the specialty front.

LaMair received a master’s degree in Insurance and Risk Management from Florida State University, and a bachelor’s degree in Finance from Iowa State University. He resides in Des Moines, Iowa.
