Linton, FSA, MAAA, EA, is a retirement actuary with deep expertise leading global teams and serving both the employee benefit and management consulting industries. He is a principal with Milliman’s Boise office, specializing in retirement plan consulting to private and public employers.

In his role as Global Practice Director of Employee Benefits, he has overseen four years of growth and increased collaboration across Milliman’s retirement consulting and plan administration businesses.

“I’m excited by the opportunity to lead Milliman at this exciting time in the firm’s history, and I’m honored that my partners have chosen me for this important role,” said Linton. “Milliman is at a unique point in its history, following an incredible decade of growth on Ken’s watch. We are a global company that does business in 75 countries, solving complex challenges for a world at risk.”
