New role strengthens national broker partnerships and sales execution across UAA and MECON
Melbourne, 13 October 2025: UAA Group has appointed Con Stoitsis as Distribution Manager, a new national leadership role charged with elevating broker engagement and sales performance across the Group’s brands, UAA and MECON.
Reporting to Marc Crossman, Executive General Manager – Distribution Strategy, Stoitsis will lead the national team of state-based Business Development Managers across UAA and MECON, driving excellence in broker engagement and distribution performance.
The role has been established to enhance the leadership depth within the distribution function, providing day‑to‑day direction for the BDM team while supporting execution of the business’s broader Distribution Strategy. Acting as the link between strategic intent and field execution, Stoitsis will ensure alignment of activity with commercial priorities, partnering closely with Underwriting, Claims, and Brand to deliver a consistent and customer‑focused market presence.
Having worked closely with UAA and MECON over the years in previous roles, Stoitsis said the Group’s progressive culture, broker-first mindset and trusted reputation were key factors in his decision to join.
“From the outside looking in, I always admired the way UAA and MECON engaged with brokers,” he said. “Now that I’m part of the team, my focus is on clearing roadblocks, backing our BDMs and making every broker interaction count. We’ll tailor our approach to each brokerage and bring a fresh, objective lens to lift relationships,” Stoitsis said. “I don’t believe in micromanaging – we hire capable people and equip them with clear priorities, the right tools and active listening. When the team is connected and supported, growth follows.”
Crossman said Stoitsis brings deep national broker relationships and a proven track record in building distribution capability and sales performance.
“Con blends commercial acumen with genuine broker insight. His appointment strengthens our leadership depth within distribution and will help sharpen our focus on execution, ensuring our BDMs have the support, structure and rhythm needed to succeed. He’ll work with the team to refine our contact cadence, enhance pipeline quality and embed consistent ways of working across the country, all while keeping the customer front and centre,” Crossman said.
“This appointment is a key step in our distribution transformation and our commitment to broker service.”
UAA Group CEO Stan Alexandropoulos welcomed Stoitsis to the leadership team. “I’ve known Con for many years and rate him highly as a values-driven leader who gets results and aligns execution with strategy. He understands brokers, fosters collaboration and brings out the best in people. He’s a great cultural fit for UAA Group and will help accelerate our growth agenda” Alexandropoulos said.
The Distribution Manager role reflects UAA Group’s ongoing investment in broker experience and national distribution excellence, with an emphasis on consistent execution and close collaboration between sales and underwriting teams.
