Independent insurance broker Heath Lambert has today announced the appointment of a new commercial director for its affinities business with a specific focus on the business’s trade association, reflecting its commitment to developing commercial opportunity in its existing markets.

Speaking on the appointment, Mike Owen, marketing director, said that Dawson’s past experience will enable the Group to continue to provide the same standard of cover for complex larger organisations it has built its reputation on, with the ability to more effectively leverage business opportunities in

Heath Lambert is renowned for its services to trade associations and large professional organisations, and it widely quotes as the UK’s largest independent broker of insurance products for that specific market.

It is hoped that Dawson’s appointment will be conducive to extending the market reach of Heath Lambert into insurance markets, with a view to developing the commercial side of the business over the coming years.
