1. How did you find your way into the insurance broking world?
When I applied for a position in the accounts department of an insurance broking business, I knew very little about the industry. After a while I was given the opportunity to transfer internally to the transport team as a broker assistant. This was the beginning of a career full of unlimited opportunities for both personal and professional growth.
2. What were you doing before you joined the insurance industry, and what skills were you able to bring with you?
After leaving school I worked at a solicitor’s office and then an advertising and marketing firm. Both jobs gave me the opportunity to develop my interpersonal and communication skills, with a focus on the importance of in-person client relationships. These are valuable traits that I have carried with me in my career.
3. How would you describe what you do for your clients in one sentence?
We take the time to really get to know our client’s, understand their business and deliver timely and well-informed advice.
4. What types of clients or industries do you typically work with?
I work with a broad range of industries including property owners, wholesaling and manufacturing businesses, HVAC, construction and fine art clients.
5. What’s one client story or experience that’s really stayed with you?
The experience of working with one particular client where their sole purpose or driver is to empower communities is something that has stayed with me. I feel a high level of respect for the volunteers and the dedicated individuals involved.
6. What makes Perrymans different?
Our personal approach and a high level of pride in what we deliver to our clients. Each and every team member is committed to going the extra mile.
7. What do you value most about the way we work or support our clients?
Our team approach, we understand the importance of collaboration and bringing together the strengths of each team member for the ultimate benefit of our clients.
8. What’s the most rewarding part of your role?
Receiving positive client feedback and knowing that our client’s genuinely appreciate what we do for them is pretty satisfying.
9. When you’re not at work, where can we find you?
I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, trying new places to eat, pottering in the garden or just relaxing with a good book.
