Partnering with our Board and Alight's talented leadership team, I have great confidence in our ability to set a strategy that continues to prioritize investments that make a difference to the millions of people we serve and advances our return to growth."

"On behalf of the Board and the entire Alight organization, I want to thank Dave for leading significant efforts to strengthen Alight's delivery operations, enhance our product innovations, and improve our liquidity and margins," added Fradin.
