LUKE WARE
State manager, South Australia
WILLIS
He’s an Ironman triathlon competitor and an accomplished musician, who’s released four albums and toured internationally. And then there’s his insurance career! Luke Ware manages Willis’ South Australian branch, overseeing a $3.6m budget and 16-member team. Ware has created a strong sales culture and accountability for growth, which has culminated in SA having an exceptionally strong new business pipeline that has set the branch up to exceed budgets.
Ware has leveraged national industry strengths to successfully secure major new business wins, including the largest corporate renewable new business win for Willis in Australia last year. Ware has earned commendations from clients for service deliverables and program structure that led to a 98 per cent retention rate, despite some significant challenges. Ware is currently participating in CGU’s Platinum Leadership Program. He’d like to gain experience in the Asian broking market, and is keen to develop his people management skills and push himself outside of his comfort zone. He’s passionate about assisting others to succeed.
