“As we continue to grow the personal injury practice, we have an outstanding management team in place to scale the services and support our clients,” said Jeroen Fröhlich, CEO in the Netherlands. “Martin has been at the helm of the personal injury department and, under his stellar leadership, has doubled the division and scope of the work over the last 15 years. He has been part of my management team and continues to provide a vision in our operations and leading change for clients. I look forward to seeing his successful track record continue in this new role.”

This new role highlights her massive growth, having served in several positions and groups at this company, and I am excited to see her lead and expand this team.”

My time at Sedgwick has provided me with the foundation to take on new challenges, work with talented colleagues and excel in the industry. We are part of a large corporation but still feels like a family business, perhaps because the core values that starts with caring counts here is deeply engrained.”
