Commissioner Robert Joseph De Claro assumed his post as the new officer-in-charge of the Social Security System (SSS), replacing Rolando Ledesma Macasaet, who resigned earlier this month.
The SSS said in a statement that the Social Security Commission (SSC), the policymaking body of the state pension agency, made the decision.
De Claro has served on the SSC since Jan. 11, 2023, representing the Employers’ Group. As commissioner, he chaired the IT and Collection and Contribution Committee and participated in key committees covering audit, risk, investment, and governance.
In addition to his new role, De Claro has been a member of the board of UnionBank (UBP) and UnionBank Investment and Trust Corp. (UBIMTC) and a member of its Executive Committee (ExCom), Governance, and Risk Committees since 2023.
De Claro’s professional background spans over 32 years, including executive roles in the public and private sectors.
He began his career at Nestlé Philippines in 1993 and eventually held international positions as an expatriate (OFW) in Australia and at Nestlé’s headquarters in Switzerland.
