Tyson Johnston
Managing Director | Protection, Asia Pacific and Global Strategy

Since opening our Australian office in 2015 we have leveraged our global experience and an enthusiastic team - collectively committed to excellence, innovation and superior service – to build a leadership position in the Australian market.

Our business is built with a clear and informed focus on the future. Utilising a strong foundation of knowledge and expertise, we take new risks as they arise and continue to be driven by a passion to support a sustainable long-term insurance market, building on the hard-fought gains of the industry in recent years.

Working at Pacific Life Re Australia is a rewarding experience with a diverse culture, focus on development, and exposure to a variety of product lines ranging from the traditional industry fund group insurance market through to our unique retail partnership with a life insurance provider.

Our commitment to providing the best solutions available is reinforced by our company's vision to lead the way in technology information. Our underwriting technology, Ocean and UnderwriteMe, not only position us as a leader in the reinsurance industry globally, they put our clients front-and-centre in the crucial decision-making process.

Reconciliation Australia

We were delighted to be presented with the artwork created for our Sydney office by the fabulous Aboriginal artist Brett Groves. The piece is a beautiful depiction of a whale and her calf and was commissioned to support our work with Reconciliation Australia. We are creating a 'Reflect' Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) through which we are seeking to contribute to meaningful change to support First Nations communities.

As part of this work, we are creating a strategic framework to educate staff, improve relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and engage key stakeholders that support these communities.

We will be finalising our Reconciliation Action Plan in the next few months and are proud that the artwork will feature in the final report.
