Foley will be following Mark Wilkerson, due to retire in 2014. As the former president of distribution and marketing at Genworth, Foley led their multichannel distribution platform of life, annuity, long-term care, linked benefit products and strategic marketing programs.

“Pat Foley is uniquely qualified to lead this vital division of our enterprise, says Dayton H. Molendorp, CEO and chairman at OneAmerica. “He has proven success in every aspect of the business, from building and growing a top general agency to successfully leading critical business units as a company executive. We believe he is well-suited to drive out individual business growth strategy into the future.”
