Once again, Insurance Business’ annual Hot List serves as a veritable who’s who of the Australian insurance space – 50 key figures who marked themselves out as particularly notable or influential over the last 12 months, and who are set for even bigger and better things in 2020. From insurtech founders and industry disruptors to established veterans who remain at the top of their game, everyone featured on the following pages is doing their part to push Australia’s insurance sector forward.

There was no shortage of worthy candidates as IB sought to narrow down the list to the 50 individuals featured here. The industry has again demonstrated its potential as a positive and challenging work environment for many high-achieving professionals. External appreciation for the rewarding career opportunities insurance offers might be lacking at times, but this year’s Hot List proves that there are plenty of people excelling in the industry and happy to remain in it.
