Sacramento, Calif.-based InterWest Insurance Services named Keith Schuler CEO. He will be in charge of guiding the company toward a $500 million increase in premiums managed and keep the company independently owned.
InterWest is an independently owned commercial insurance brokerage firm with more than 100 sales executives and 330 employees. Headquartered in Sacramento, its market area spans from California’s East Bay to Tahoe and Bakersfield to the Oregon boarder and includes nine offices throughout California. The company currently manages more than $500 million in policy premiums, and the objective is to double the amount of premiums and reach $1 billion in premiums managed and $100 million in revenue.
“This … will mark a new phase in our growth and renewed dedication to the markets we serve,” said Tom Williams, InterWest’s board chairman.
Schuler, who has been with InterWest for more than 21 years, was previously the president of the company’s Northern Division. Along with Schuler’s appointment, InterWest’s executive committee announced that the only way to fulfill its mission was to resist attempts to be merged or acquired.
