Last year we launched our new people-first brand. A commitment to exceptional service is not a concept or buzzword, it’s a value that is powered by people. As a result of this, we’re delighted to announce that not only have we received a five-star rating in the ‘Insurance Times Five-Star Rating Report Commercial Lines 2023/24’, but we have moved to the coveted number one spot. 🏆 This achievement illustrates the work we put in every day to never lose our people-first ethos as we grow. Thank you to our broker partners for making this possible.🤝 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/evmer3r9 #WeAreMarkel

I'm pleased to congratulate Oliver Balderston of Ardonagh Advisory, our first Service Champion of 2024! You've been recognised by your colleagues and peers with an incredible seven individual nominations you received, showcasing the remarkable impact you have on your colleagues and clients. David Haddock, among others, praised your pivotal role in delivering the Markel PI Combined product on Bravo Digital Trader. Your collaboration with the Markel UK Underwriting, Technical, and Distribution teams demonstrated an unwavering commitment to policyholders’ and brokers’ needs. Having been involved in this project myself I have seen first-hand your drive and commitment in delivering this fantastic digital solution for Bravo Networks brokers and their customers. Recognition of this kind of effort is precisely what Service Champion is all about - enabling the broking community to recognise their colleagues and peers who are raising service standards. Nominations are currently open to any professionals within the UK broking community. It's a really great way to let someone know they are valued. https://lnkd.in/gbBsRbcy
