As the newly elected Australasian president of Young Insurance Professionals, Marsh broker Katie Stephenson is setting herself apart from her peers while also supporting and encouraging industry newcomers. Having helped found the group’s Northern Territories chapter in 2014, Stephenson stepped up as Australasian treasurer and later vice president at YIPs before becoming the first woman to lead the organisation.

“I’m really passionate about the fact that we leave the ladder down,” Stephenson says. “We advocate for young insurance professionals to continue education and to continue networking to ensure their success in the industry.”

This is certainly not the first time Stephenson has been recognised for her contributions to the industry: she was the SA/NT regional winner of NIBA’s Young Professional of the Year Award and was also selected as one of ANZIIF’s top five up-and-coming brokers in Australia.
