Simon Davies joins Aon Hewitt to lead UK DC Consulting team
London
NYSE: AON

LONDON, 24 November 2011 – Aon Hewitt, the global human resource consulting and outsourcing business of Aon Corporation (NYSE:AON) has announced that it has appointed Simon Davies to lead its UK Defined Contribution (DC) Consulting team. 

Simon Davies joins Aon Hewitt from Standard Life where he was Head of Corporate Client Relationships.  Prior to this he spent six years as a director at KPMG, running the London DC Consulting team after moving from a similar position at Punter Southall.  Simon has a wealth of knowledge in DC consulting and has worked with some of the largest companies in the UK, helping them with both DC strategy and scheme design.

Alistair Connell, managing director of Benefits Solutions at Aon Hewitt said:
"The next few years will be a key period in the DC market with not just the introduction of auto-enrolment but also an acceleration of DC provision within organisations as even more DB schemes close to future accrual.

"We are therefore very pleased that Simon Davies has brought his considerable experience in DC consulting to the Aon Hewitt team. In addition to helping organisations on the approach for their DC and wider benefits offerings, he has been heavily involved in a number of change communications projects as companies have moved away from Defined Benefit provision, and this broad experience will be a major asset to our team."
