Following a national executive search led by the organization’s Search Committee and Board of Directors, Jamie Murdock has been named president of Financial & Insurance Conference Professionals (FICP). Most recently, Murdock served as managing vice president of sales and industry presence at Maritz. He previously held senior sales and leadership positions across the meetings and events sector.
“I am honored to join FICP and excited to serve such a highly engaged and respected community,” said Murdock. “FICP has a remarkable legacy, a deeply committed membership and hospitality partner network, and tremendous momentum for the future. I look forward to listening, learning and working alongside the Board, our members, partners and staff team to build on that success and continue advancing the profession.”
As president, he will help operationalize the association’s strategic direction, support long-term organizational growth and serve as a key ambassador for FICP within the meetings, events and hospitality industries.
“Jamie brings the leadership experience, industry perspective and collaborative approach we were seeking in FICP’s next president,” said Lori Allen, chair of the FICP Board of Directors. “Throughout the search process, he demonstrated a deep appreciation for our community, a commitment to our mission and a thoughtful vision for building on the strong foundation that generations of FICP leaders, members and partners have created. We are excited to welcome Jamie to FICP and confident his leadership will help us build on that momentum for our association and the broader industry.”
