Morris has spent the last 11 years in business development for Mercer's Health & Benefit practice, where he was consistently one of the top 10 new business producers. In addition to his production and client service responsibilities, Morris also developed a signature educational series and co-chaired the Atlanta chapter of a corporate community outreach program.
Prior to Mercer, Morris spent more than 15 years in the technology industry in various business development roles.
As a consultant for EPIC's Employee Benefits practice in the Southeast, Morris will provide client service leadership, including overall strategy, relationship management, in addition to bringing new clients to EPIC. His proven success in these areas is well aligned with EPIC's core values of client service excellence and advocacy.
"Irv's versatility and ingenuity has been invaluable to both his clients and the community he serves," said Steve Needle, Southeast Region Employee Benefits Managing Principal. "He has a collaborative approach to client service and has proven his ability to help middle market employers employ successful benefit strategies that they can build on."
Morris earned his undergraduate degree in Risk Management & Insurance from the University of Georgia.
"I am truly excited to be joining an organization that lives its values," says Morris. "We put people first and by doing so, our clients' needs become our highest priority. I was also attracted to EPIC's constant pursuit of innovation; always looking for new ways to add further value to the clients we serve."
