In the newly created role, Creighton will be in charge of implementing the broking giant’s growth strategy for trade credit and trade finance in England, Wales, and Scotland. He will report to GB financial solutions head Paul Lacey.

“Michael has been integral to the ongoing success of the financial solutions team, and this new position reflects both his proven leadership skills and expertise, as well as WTW’s continued investment in servicing our trade credit and finance clients,” Lacey said in an emailed release.
