Willis Appoints McKain Head of Columbus, Ohio, Office

Willis, the global insurance broker, has named Frank E. McKain managing partner of its Columbus, Ohio office, effective July 14.

He succeeds Kim Sparks, who as interim managing partner successfully navigated the operation through a merger and leadership change. Sparks will retain a key leadership role going forward.

Reporting to Midwest regional executive Tom Ealy, McKain will be responsible for building on the firm’s industry-leading position in central Ohio, as well as expanding its reach into Indiana and Kentucky.

McKain joins Willis from Marsh, where most recently he was the growth leader for its Columbus, Indianapolis, and Louisville office cluster. Earlier, he worked with insurance broker Hylant Group.
