Ausure has unveiled changes to its executive team to support a strategic initiative aimed at recruiting new authorised representative (AR) broker partners.

Adam Sloan (pictured), formerly head of blended broking and sales, has been appointed general manager of business development.

In his new role, Sloan will focus on attracting insurance brokerages to join Ausure, overseeing the development and training of emerging talent, and working with general manager of marketing Charline Mitchener on broking and digital sales strategies.

Sloan said Ausure was committed to refining its branding and enhancing its processes to deliver high-quality service to ARs.

“Ausure has dedicated significant time to branding, alignment, and enhancing our processes and automation to ensure we provide best-in-class service to our authorised representatives. We are highly selective in choosing who joins our group, as both our reputation and that of our representatives are crucial. Eager to grow and expand, we are now focusing on adding new authorised representatives for the first time in a while. We believe we can offer a genuine point of difference compared to others in the market,” he said.

Ausure leadership appointments

Additionally, Ausure has made other executive appointments:

  • Vickie Jeffery, general manager of technology and systems
  • Deb Whyte, general manager of people and culture
  • Charline Mitchener, general manager of marketing

It also recently appointed Amanda Theodosiou as learning and development manager. Commencing on her new role this month, she supports, trains, and mentors the AR broking staff.

Ausure seeks new authorised representatives

In light of recent adjustments affecting brokerages in other groups, particularly those related to Steadfast SCTP platform access, Ausure is intensifying efforts to recruit new ARs.

The company is presenting various incentives to ease the transition for brokerages joining Ausure.

According to Ausure, notable benefits for its ARs include:

  • Steadfast’s major shareholding, alongside long-term management shareholders
  • three distinct service models catering to diverse business needs
  • subsidised training and development programs for ARs and their staff
  • joint venture opportunities and growth through acquisitions
  • comprehensive claims handling and back-office processing services
  • cutting-edge technology solutions, such as a free Debtors Management platform
  • extensive marketing support and initiatives
  • legal and compliance support

The company offers incentives and support for brokerages considering a move, including a dedicated project manager, comprehensive marketing support, and a training and development manager.

Brokerages interested in joining Ausure are encouraged to contact Adam Sloan (0457 667 491) or visit the Ausure website for further information.
