Nottingham

- From a starting point of £0 GWP, I brought in over £800,000 New Business GWP from my long standing client relationships & reputation within the industry
- Spearheaded client retention initiatives, preventing loss of key clients.
- Monitored market trends, resulting in improved competitive positioning.
