Todd Belden will be responsible for the overall management, direction and growth of the office

Hylant Group, a commercial insurance brokerage firm, has named Todd Belden to the position of president in its Cincinnati, Ohio office.

 

In his role, Mr Belden will be responsible for the overall management, direction and growth of the office. Under Mr Belden’s direction and leadership, Hylant will focus on further expansion in the large account and middle market segments in southwestern Ohio and Kentucky while continuing to expand the employee benefits and healthcare divisions.

 

Prior to joining Hylant, Mr Belden was the CEO at Willis of Tennessee. He was also president of Willis Ohio and senior vice president of Wells Fargo in Cincinnati, Ohio.
