Acrisure has appointed Robin Benoit (pictured above) as its chief people officer, effective Sept. 29.

Benoit, who had been serving in the role on an interim basis since March 2024, will report to Greg Williams, the company’s co-founder, chairman, and CEO.

In her new role, Benoit will oversee the strategic direction of Acrisure’s human resources functions, including talent acquisition, employee development, total rewards, and organizational culture.

Before joining Acrisure, Benoit led her own consultancy practice and held senior human resources positions at State Street Corporation, Alternate Solutions Health Network, and other companies across various industries.

“Robin’s extensive leadership experience across multiple industries and her deep understanding of our business make her the ideal leader to drive our people strategy forward,” Williams said. “Having already demonstrated her commitment and vision in her interim role, I am confident that Robin will be instrumental in supporting our mission and continued growth.”

Since taking on the interim role in March, Benoit has integrated herself into Acrisure’s entrepreneurial culture.

“I am honored to take on this role and continue to work with the incredible team at Acrisure,” commented Benoit. “My first six months have been nothing short of exhilarating – there’s so much opportunity in front of us and best of all, our clients and people will be the ultimate beneficiaries. I’m thankful to Greg and other members of the team for this opportunity,” Benoit said.

Benoit holds a master of business administration degree from Northeastern University’s D’Amore-McKim School of Business and a bachelor’s degree in economics from Rhode Island College.
