Woburn's MKA Executive Planners appoints senior vice president

MKA Executive Planners, a Woburn-based provider of personalized retirement income planning for executives, business owners, and professionals, has appointed Dennis Sexton, of Peabody, as Senior Vice President.

Sexton has extensive experience in employee benefits consulting, sales leadership, and business development. He is rejoining MKA, where he served as principal of the firm’s employee benefits practice from 1988 to 1998. Most recently, Sexton served as CEO of MCS Carelink, a population health management company in Danvers.

“It is a great pleasure to welcome Dennis back to the MKA team,” said Barry Koslow, President and CEO of MKA Executive Planners. “During his previous tenure with MKA, Dennis successfully developed the firm’s benefits division into a large regional brokerage. In his newly created position as senior vice president, he will play a major role in managing client relationships and developing new solutions to help clients reach their financial goals.”

Sexton has more than three decades of experience working in the insurance and health care industries. He previously managed the employee benefits division of IIG Inc., followed by sales leadership positions at SentiCare Inc. and WorldClinic Inc.

“The experience that I have acquired since leaving MKA is, ironically, what positions me to return to MKA in this role,” said Sexton. “I look forward to the opportunity to combine my knowledge of the company with what I have learned along the way to help guide MKA into its next phase of growth and development.”

Sexton graduated from Nichols College, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in marketing.
