AIA Singapore has announced the appointment of Owen Addison as its new Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), effective 1 October 2025. Addison will report directly to Wong Sze Keed, the Chief Executive Officer of AIA Singapore. This appointment follows the retirement of Aileen Tan, who has been a pivotal figure at AIA Singapore for over seven years.
Addison, who joined AIA in January 2017, brings extensive experience in HR business partnering, organisation transformation, and executive compensation. Before this role, he held several key positions within AIA Group Human Resources in Hong Kong, including Director of Human Resources. His previous experience also includes a consulting role at PwC.
Wong Sze Keed expressed confidence in Addison’s capabilities, stating, “Owen has demonstrated exceptional leadership and strategic vision throughout his tenure at AIA. With his proven track record in shaping and driving people and organisation strategies, AIA Singapore is confident that he will play a pivotal role in the company’s continued success.”
Aileen Tan, who will retire on 30 September 2025, has been instrumental in shaping AIA Singapore’s culture and values. She will continue to contribute her expertise to Amplify Health, leading the People and Culture team as a strategic guide and coach.
AIA Singapore remains committed to fostering a people-centric culture, prioritising talent development and internal mobility to provide the best opportunities for its employees.
