The 40 strong Leeds team has an enviable long standing local reputation for service excellence. We accommodate an incredibly diverse range of commercial insurance risks, ranging from small local traders right through to the larger corporate, blue chip, businesses.
We have a strong and very experienced team of underwriters (both internal and in the field), sales executives and risk managers who are readily available and easy to access by our customers.
Our team in Leeds is widely recognised as one of the best available in the local market. We also boast a proud record in securing and managing some blue chip companies, as well as offering a high degree of expertise within a number of trade segments.
