Winnipeg, Manitoba — The Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) Board of Directors have selected Satvir Jatana as the corporation’s new president and Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
Jatana currently serves as MPI’s vice president and chief customer officer, where she oversees product development, communications, government relations and efforts to expand the gathering and utilization of customer feedback across MPI.
Her new role will begin effective immediately with Carmen Nedohin, MPI Board Chair commenting that “Satvir brings a wide range of executive-level experience to this position, including nearly nine years as a leader in Manitoba’s public insurance industry. She deeply understands the needs of MPI’s customers, and with financial responsibility and customer service as her focus, Satvir will lead this organization in the best interests of Manitobans. She has the full support of the Board of Directors as she begins her new tenure as President and CEO of MPI.”
Jatana takes over from Marnie Kacher, who recently acted as the corporation’s interim president and CEO from May 2023.
“MPI is a strong organization full of talented and committed people, but it is in need of a reset,” said Nedohin. “Satvir’s insight as a long-term employee, breadth of experience as a leader and strong desire to unite and engage MPI’s team makes her the right person to lead MPI into a new chapter.”
In her new role, Jatana will focus on setting a new corporate direction for MPI, informed by guidance and advice from government members, MPI’s Board of Directors and insight from the recent organizational review completed by EY, a recent press release further outlined.
“I am grateful to the Board of Directors for this opportunity,” said Jatana. “It is an honour to serve the province that is home to me by leading an organization that is a pillar in communities across Manitoba. I am proud to work alongside an exceptional team of committed employees to continue MPI’s long-standing tradition of providing exceptional customer experience and delivering affordable rates for Manitobans.”
