General insurance provider Berkeley Alexander has hired an additional business development team and sales manager in response to recent growth.
The provider has reported sales via its distribution partners up by 66% on the same period last year.
The new business development resource will offer additional support to its growing number of intermediary partners.
In addition the new team will offer a dedicated resource supporting small agents and IFAs.
Alan Collinson, business development director at Berkeley Alexander, said: “We’re delighted by the growth we’ve achieved over the last year. We’ve invested significantly in our home, landlords, ASU/MMPI and commercial propositions in 2014, and have built some of the largest home insurance product panels available to advisers. This work has returned a dividend for us, and the new additional team of BDMs are testimony to that fact.
However, we won’t be resting on our laurels. We’ll continue to improve and innovate, providing our intermediary partners with the very best service and support possible. This latest recruitment will significantly strengthen our team, and allow us to give even greater focus to those areas of the market where potential exists.”
