Ms. Reibel joined Manulife in 1994 and brings her experience in the retirement industry, as well as her knowledge of the U.S retirement business, to the role. Prior to leading the global retirement business, she held numerous senior management roles at Manulife, including leading the Canadian Group Retirement and Group Benefits business, and establishing and leading the Canadian direct-to-consumer business.
"I look forward to leading the John Hancock Retirement team and to continuing John Hancock's success," said Sue Reibel, CEO, John Hancock Retirement. "The retirement market remains core to John Hancock's growth and with more than 50,000 plans and 3 million participants we have a strong base from which to expand."
