Hele joins from MetLife where he served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer between 2012 and 2018.

In this new role Hele will oversee all global operations at Resolution Life including Finance, Risk, Actuarial, Operations and IT, as well as the P&L of the business units.
“John brings a wealth of experience from senior life insurance and banking roles and we are delighted to welcome him to Resolution Life,” said Sir Clive Cowdery, Chairman at Resolution Life.
“Resolution Life’s decision to form a global reinsurance and insurance operator was driven by a desire to release capital for our insurance partners, and the addition of John’s financial and operational expertise will strengthen the company to deliver on this purpose.”
Commenting on his appointment, Hele said, “I am excited to be joining a team with such a strong track record of pioneering change in the life insurance industry and placing the in-force customer at the top of the priority list.”
