MassMutual Retirement Services has appointed San Francisco State University alumnus Gary Bozin as one of eight new relationship managers to further support retirement plan sponsor clients.
Bozin was named as a senior relationship manager for government-sponsored retirement plans in northern California, Oregon, Washington and Alaska. He reports to Amy Humphrey, assistant vice president, government markets.
These managers will be responsible for parts of New York, New Jersey, New England, California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Alaska. The new appointments are part of a plan to increase the number of relationship managers from the current staff of 98 to a new total of 110 to help keep pace with sales efforts.
Before MassMutual, Bozin served in a variety of roles at ING, most recently as a regional vice president serving tax-exempt retirement plans. Bozin has 30 years of experience in financial services, earned a bachelor’s of science degree at San Francisco State University, and has FINRA Series 7, 24, 65 and 63 licenses.
“MassMutual’s relationship managers are connection points for our network of support for employers, financial advisers and third party administrators,” said Una Morabito, senior vice president of client management for MassMutual Retirement. “Our relationship managers are seasoned professionals who work to make retirement plans as effective as possible and help employees prepare for retirement on their own terms.”
The new relationship managers will be responsible for helping employers make the most of their 401(k), 457 and 403(b) defined contribution retirement plans. The relationship managers work with employer’s on-staff decision makers, investment advisers, attorneys and accountants to help manage plans as effectively as possible.
