Insurance Business Australia Awards return to celebrate the industry's best

Comedian, actor and presenter Ed Kavalee – a recurring panellist on Network 10’s Have You Been Paying Attention? – will be your host. The entertainment includes the Groove Academy’s Party Band, regarded as one of Australia’s most in-demand acts.

This year’s awards event is the fifth annual celebration and follows two years of virtual gatherings. The exciting occasion gives brokers, brokerages, insurers, underwriting agencies, BDMs, service providers and more the chance to be showcased on a national stage, while celebrating with all the glitz and glamour that they deserve.

Last month, after an arduous selection process, Insurance Business announced the 2022 excellence awardees. Click here to see who is shortlisted for each category. This is a shortlist of the top performers in each awards category. A single winner from each shortlisted category will be announced and honoured on the big night.

Previous winners continue to enjoy the limelight and speak favourably of the ongoing benefits of the awards.

“I feel it is the perfect recognition of our staff’s commitment to provide industry leading service and advice to the construction industry,” said Gary Sim, director of CCM Insurance Group and one of the most successful award winners.

This year CCM is an excellence awardee for the Specialist Brokerage of the Year Award, a prize sponsored by CHU Underwriting Agencies. CCM has won this prize for the last three years.
