Broadway Insurance Partners has announced two senior appointments as part of its strategic development, following a period of significant expansion. According to the company, Melissa Golder has joined its healthcare division, while Michael Blacklock has been appointed to its corporate team.
Golder joins as senior health and wellbeing benefits consultant, bringing more than 10 years of experience in the insurance industry, including roles at Vitality, Bupa, and Reich. Golder’s appointment follows a successful year for Broadway’s healthcare division, which posted more than £1 million in gross written premiums (GWPs).
Michael Blacklock joins Broadway’s corporate team as a Client Executive. He brings a wealth of expertise from his previous positions at Marsh McLennan and Arthur J. Gallagher. The corporate division serves a diverse range of clients, from small and mid-sized businesses to multinational corporations.
The latest hires bring Broadway’s total workforce to 25, underscoring the firm’s commitment to growth and enhanced client service.
Broadway’s trajectory of success is evident in its 2023 performance. In the first half of the year alone, the company saw its client base grow by 45% and the number of policies it manages increase by 51%. This resulted in £6 million in GWP, with projections suggesting the figure will surpass £7.5 million by year-end. The total value of assets insured by Broadway has also reached a record high, exceeding £2 billion in 2023.
These appointments are part of Broadway’s broader strategy to strengthen its position in the market and deliver exceptional service to its growing client base.
