On this week’s episode we are joined by Phil Barton, CEO of Partners&, who demonstrates to us that you can achieve anything in insurance if you think big enough and work hard to accomplish your goals.Phil shares with us about his time as CEO of Jelf including how he helped turn around the business whilst he was on the board and then led the group through a huge journey of growth and consolidation culminating in the sale to Marsh & McLennan.He explains the benefit of gaining experience in different C-Suite positions before taking on the role of CEO and reveals his drive and motivation to provide great advisory services to his clients as well as career development and opportunity to his leadership team.In his new role as CEO of Partners&, Phil brings industry leading expertise to this boutique start up brokerage and explains to us his characteristically bold plans for the business to be “the best insurance advisory company in the UK.”This is a must listen for ambitious insurance professionals and senior leaders alike, so please download and enjoy the show.Listeners can reach out to Phil about his career or the work he is now doing at Partners& via his LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-barton-25407323/ or on his email phil.barton@partnersand.com (although we would be grateful if you can be respectful of his time).This episode is hosted by Nick Hoadley, CEO of  International Insurance Executive Search consultancy, Insurance Search.If you would like to contact Nick about the podcast or to discuss any executive search assignments you may have, please go to our website www.insurance-search.co.uk or email him at info@insurance-search.co.uk .
