Have you ever heard of the name Marsh McLennan? It’s a global powerhouse in the world of risk, strategy, and people. Located here in Edinburgh, on Airborne Place, Marsh McLennan has a long history, having been founded in 1871. It’s hard to imagine that this modern office building once stood on ground that was shaped by the Great Fire of 1871. This fire wiped out many insurers, and it was this event that created an opportunity for the firm’s founders, Henry W. Marsh and Donald R. McLennan, to merge their firms and create the largest insurance agency in the world – the very foundation of what we know as Marsh McLennan today. The firm has grown exponentially since then, with offices around the world, offering a range of services, from insurance broking and risk management to consulting for businesses and individuals. Their reach is so extensive that they advise around 95% of Fortune 1000 companies. Stepping inside the office building, you’re not getting just an office building but a glimpse into a company that helped to change the landscape of the global insurance industry. You are standing at the heart of a company shaping the world’s response to risk, strategy, and people.
