Jonathan Hines has been a top producer within Wilson Insurance since 2001, and has achieved a new business closing ratio of nearly 100%. He also earned a spot on IBC’s Elite Brokers list in both 2014 and 2015.
Hines became a partner at Wilson Insurance in 2012 and led the opening of its Moncton branch in 2013. Since then, he’s been responsible for sourcing and negotiating contracted appointments with 10 new insurers. He’s also in charge of growing the company’s mid-market client portfolio, along with its resources and capability, in order to expand the size and complexity of Wilson Insurance's key accounts.
As a producer, Hines recognizes the frustration clients have with the insurancebuying process, and has thus committed to help his clients “better understand their risks and see insurance as a tool that can be customized to fit their overall risk management strategy and scaled to fit their risk tolerance, as opposed to [being] simply an expense with little tangible value.”
Outside of his day job, Hines keeps busy as member of the Downtown Moncton Rotary Club, where he previously served as a board member and currently is a youth exchange counsellor. He also conducts presentations on a variety of riskand insurance-related topics for industry groups and associations.
