Nick said: “I’m delighted to have joined Russell Scanlan, they are a very well-known broker within the East Midlands with an excellent reputation both for the service they offer clients and the way they treat their employees.
“Living in Nottingham, I wanted to work a little closer to home and when a friend told me about the position I jumped at the chance. I’m settling in very well so far, still adjusting to new procedures but the team have been very welcoming and I’m looking forward to having my own dedicated group of clients that I can build relationships with and help grow.
“The opportunity for career progression was really important to me and as Russell Scanlan has Chartered Insurance Broker status, I will soon start studying for my CII certification.”
Mike Dickinson, Marketing Director at Russell Scanlan, added: “We’re always on the lookout for passionate, hard-working and talented staff so we’re delighted to welcome Nick to the team. His experience will be invaluable in supporting our growing number of private clients, building relationships and delivering that extra added value on which we pride ourselves. He is an excellent addition to the company and we look forward to seeing his achievements over the coming months and years.”
