He was most recently chief technical officer of Aon’s global space team. Under his stewardship, the team will continue to deliver differentiated capabilities and strategic insights to aerospace clients.

Meyrick added: “Jared Ball’s appointment reflects our ongoing commitment to excellence and the future growth of our space practice. Jeff has been closely collaborating with Jared to ensure a seamless transition and continued support for the firm’s space clients and colleagues, so we are confident that under his guidance, the team will continue to meet the evolving needs of our clients.”
