Assurant Intermediary boosts sales team

10 December 2019

Assurant Intermediary, the broker-focussed GI protection specialist, today announced the appointment of Liam Nugent as Business Development Manager (BDM), reporting to Carl Stacey, Head of Distribution and responsible for Assurant’s relationships with its intermediary partners.

Liam officially started his new role on the 16 September and has completed an extensive induction and introduction programme including presenting at network events. He will cover Wales and the Midlands, supporting Assurant’s existing introducers as well as building relationships to increase new business.

Carl Stacey said, “I am delighted to welcome Liam to the team. This appointment ensures we can continue to meet our advisers’ needs, in providing face to face support. Liam joins us from another Assurant business, where he managed a high performing insurance sales team.

Carl continued, “Assurant Intermediary is committed to providing the best support to our introducers and having Liam join us, gives us a stronger presence in the field to back up the sterling work undertaken by our office based support team.”

Liam Nugent commented, “I’ve been working at Assurant for just over five years and have been involved with selling insurance which has given me a first hand view of the benefits of cover and the consequences of neglecting to insure against loss or breakage. It is something I am passionate about so I am excited to join the intermediary business and look forward to meeting advisers to discuss the value of our GI products and services.”
