Alera Group said its president, Jim Blue, will become the firm’s chief executive officer, effective January 1, 2025.
Blue will succeed Alan Levitz, who will become Alera Group’s Executive Chairman. Levitz’ focus will include identifying strategic partners to help advance Alera Group’s continued success
Alera said Blue’s extensive experience in the insurance, benefits and financial services sectors, including his previous role as CEO of Marsh & McLennan Agency New England, positions him as an ideal leader for Alera Group’s next phase of growth.
Deerfield, Illinois-based Alera Group, founded in 2017, achieved impressive progress under Levitz’s leadership, growing from $150 million in revenue to almost $1.4 billion this year. Since Blue joined Alera Group as president in 2018, that growth has accelerated, with revenue increasing by nearly 330% while the company integrated more than 125 offices and grew the unified team to more than 4,400 colleagues.
“Working alongside Jim, I’ve seen his ability to engage our colleagues and communicate a strategic vision that will ensure Alera Group continues to thrive and adapt in an ever-changing market, serving clients and serving each other,” Levitz said.
