Broker Insights appoints Barbara Miller as Head of Broker Engagement 

Broker Insights, the leading data and distribution platform that connects UK insurance brokers and insurance companies, has appointed Barbara Miller to the newly-created post of Head of Broker Engagement.

Barbara has a 20-year career in financial services and IT companies, including running her own sales and marketing business for insurance brokers. Most recently, she was Group Head of Sales Operations for Clear Insurance Management.

In September, Broker Insights announced that six years after launch, brokers have uploaded £5.5 billion of Gross Written Premium (GWP) to its Vision platform and are on target to hit £6 billion by the end of the year – representing more than one-third of the UK commercial insurance market.

In her new role, Barbara will be responsible for working closely with UK insurance brokers to help them fully utilise Vision to optimise their placement strategy and engage efficiently with partner insurers.

“Broker Insights felt like the perfect fit, at the right time,” said Barbara. “Vision’s ability to pinpoint opportunities, aligned with risk appetite, allows people to focus efforts in the right places.

“We are a people industry, and technology that gives client-facing professionals more time back to focus on strategic partner relations and clients’ needs, is a mission I wanted to put my experience behind.”

“We’re excited to have Barbara, a highly experienced insurance professional, join Broker Insights during this crucial growth phase of the business,” said CEO Peter Scott. “Our Vision platform empowers brokers to match client risks with the right insurers. By improving information flow across the insurance value chain, we help brokers and insurers make better decisions and work together more efficiently. Barbara will be instrumental in helping them to get the most out of our technology to drive profitable growth.”

Six years on from launch, Dundee-based Broker Insights now employs more than 60 staff.
