Trustmark Mutual Holding Company Announces Promotion of John Anderson to President
LAKE FOREST, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 12, 2024--
National employee benefits provider Trustmark Mutual Holding Company has promoted John Anderson, previously Executive Vice President, Trustmark Voluntary Benefits, to President. In his new role, John will oversee all three of Trustmark’s operating divisions: Voluntary Benefits, Small Business Benefits, and HealthFitness, with the leaders of each of those businesses reporting to him. Anderson will continue to report to Trustmark CEO Kevin Slawin.
“John is an experienced and tested leader with a passion for Trustmark, its partners, and customers,” said Slawin. “He has the vision to build on the growth strategies in each of our businesses and the discipline to successfully execute. Over his more than 30-year career, John has represented and helped define the best of Trustmark – its caring culture and long history of strength and stability. At the same time, he has always looked forward, fostering innovation, and seeking opportunities for growth. The results speak for themselves: over the course of his career, John has led two of Trustmark’s three businesses and delivered record results.”
Anderson joined Trustmark in 1990 as a Contract Analyst. He rose through the actuarial ranks, becoming Vice President and Actuary for Trustmark’s Starmark (now Small Business Benefits) division in 2005. He was promoted to Senior Vice President and led Trustmark’s Employer Medical business starting in 2009, where he spearheaded Trustmark’s strategic transition from fully insured major medical to innovative self-funding options for smaller employers. In 2018, John was promoted to Executive Vice President overseeing all of Trustmark’s self-funded business, and, in 2019, he assumed leadership of Trustmark’s largest business, Trustmark Voluntary Benefits. There, he and his team have led development of Trustmark’s group voluntary product suite, expanded the sales force, forged relationships with leading national benefits brokers, and generated consecutive years of record revenue and earnings.
“I’m honored to take on this new, larger role,” said Anderson. “I’ve always believed that what differentiates Trustmark is our mission – helping people increase wellbeing and financial security – and how we live that mission by building trusted relationships and delivering caring service. I’m excited to work alongside the Trustmark teams in each of our businesses to further develop the valuable employee benefits and personalized fitness solutions we offer our customers. That’s how we’ll make the most of our exciting growth opportunities.”
Anderson earned a BA in mathematics from North Park University. He is a Member of the American Academy of Actuaries and a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries.
