In her new role at
Voya Financial, Mary Witherow takes on responsibility for client satisfaction,
retention and growth in the large corporate market.
Reported by John Manganaro
Mary Witherow joins Voya Financial as senior vice president for relationship management in the large corporate market.
She will focus on providing Voya’s recordkeeping services to large employer-sponsored 401(k) defined contribution and benefit plans. Witherow previously worked at Fidelity Investments for nearly 15 years, where she held several leadership positions in their retirement business, first in large corporate relationship management and later as the senior vice president and head of relationship management for the adviser-distributed market.
Before that, Witherow worked as an attorney for the U.S. Department of Labor, serving as counsel on Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) matters. She holds a B.A. and a J.D. from the University of Oklahoma and is a registered representative with Series 6, 7, 24, 26 and 63 licenses.
Witherow is based out of Voya’s Braintree, Massachusetts, office and started in early November. She reports to Rich Linton, president of large market and retail wealth management business for Voya Retirement, and replaces Sandy Tassinari, who is retiring after a long career in retirement and benefits administration.
