Insurance firm Caunce O’Hara bolsters North West presence
Caunce O’Hara, a North West-based insurance provider, has strengthened its presence in the region’s business community after achieving record growth in 2015.
The firm, which is headquartered in Manchester, reported increasing its turnover for commercial insurance by 20% and the revenue generated from schemes provided by 30%.
Caunce O’Hara also boosted its 40-strong team by appointing two new specialists and promoting its former head of broking, Natalie Albert, to the position of commercial director.
Natalie said: “I’m thrilled to be taking on the role of Commercial Director at such a crucial time for the business. Recent growth has allowed us to invest not only in our people, but also in our brand image and culture.
“We will be completing a major corporate rebrand in the autumn and I’ve no doubt that this will be instrumental in helping to build Caunce O’Hara’s presence within target sectors – something that’s a significant commercial objective, along with communicating our innovation.”
The company has further demonstrated growth this year by supporting its expanding customer base with a new London office.
The firm’s managing director, Stephen Darcy, said: “Since launching, Caunce O’Hara has worked tirelessly to build a strong reputation across the markets within which we operate. We’re passionate about being able to provide customers with exactly what they need and deliver our service in the most effective and innovative way possible.
“Our growth is representative of this and by bolstering our team of specialists and cementing our presence across all areas – both in terms of sector and location – the future looks bright.”
