Airmic welcomes new board members

Published on Fri, 14/11/2025 - 17:08

Airmic members Alison Tamm and Ivor O’Hehir have joined the Airmic board with immediate effect 

Tamm is global risk director at Control Risks. She began her career as an analyst and financial adviser in the banking sector, before moving into risk management 22 years ago.

I am a strong advocate of Airmic and the work that it does to support the development of the risk and insurance management profession and greatly enjoy participating in the industry engagement it fosters.

I am a fervent supporter of education.  I believe that as a profession we are stronger and that the debate is richer the more consistent and concrete the base is to begin with.  I truly enjoy professional discourse and challenge; I already savour this engagement at the Airmic events and would like to champion more avenues for this to take place. 

I am also a proponent of diversity: the more diverse the engagement, the more considered the position.”

O’Hehir is group insurance director for chemical manufacturer Croda International and has previously held various senior insurance and risk management roles across government, banking, charity and real estate sectors. He has been closely involved with Airmic for over a decade.

I’m passionate about advancing the profession that has given me such a varied, challenging and fun career. Alongside my fellow board members, I want to continue supporting Airmic’s excellent team to drive excellence, innovation and collaboration across the risk and insurance community.

I bring experience leading global insurance programmes within complex business environments, along with a practical understanding of how insurance supports business strategy and manages exposure.

During my career, Airmic has been a valuable platform for me to network, learn from others, exchange ideas and navigate emerging risks during rapid market changes.  I’m looking forward to helping Airmic stay closely aligned with its members’ everyday needs while also anticipating future risks and opportunities.”
