STEERS INSURANCE LIMITED
Jason Sharpe owns Steers Insurance Limited, along with his brother, Jeff, and their father, Wayne. With 10 offices across Newfoundland, the company is one of the largest insurance brokers in the province. Steers sits on the board of directors of the Insurance Brokers Association of Newfoundland, and is chair of the province’s Young Brokers Association, which he co-founded in 2005. “I became involved in the IBAN board because it’s a great way to meet people of similar interests – people passionate about the things we do in this industry,” Sharpe says. “I also think it’s a way to give back to the industry. And I think it’s fair to say I wanted to earn the respect of other brokers and insurance people by letting them know I was serious about the business.”
