With a stagnant UK economy all businesses have to be cautious in their approach to business planning. Growth is hoped for but cannot be taken for granted. So it is particularly pleasing that Heartland Midlands Ltd, a Chartered Commercial Insurance Broker based in Warwickshire, can report another year of record growth.

Brian Weetman, MD of the Heartland Group comments; "The growth is attributed to hard work and a sense of traditional broking values. It seems that customers still want a very personal and independent approach to insurance advice. Naturally to help grow our business we need a high calibre of employee and we are delighted to announce three new arrivals in the last six months"

Jim Higginson Keys has been appointed as a Dedicated Claims Handler and brings expertise and experience of working closely with clients to help manage their claims as smoothly as possible.

To support Heartland's service offering, Pardeep Bains is making the transfer from a technical underwriting role at Aviva to a dedicated Account Handler.

Beverly Buckley completes the hat-trick of new starters and has extensive insurance broking experience dealing with substantial commercial accounts throughout the Midlands area.

Heartland Midlands Ltd specialises in Commercial Insurance Broking and related services such as Corporate Risk Management.
