General insurance provider Berkeley Alexander has announced the appointment of Grant Robinson as a business development manager (BDM).

Robinson joins Berkeley Alexander from AXA PPP where he was senior sales executive. He has over 13 years’ multi-disciplinary experience in the insurance market including roles in sales, business development, and claims.

In his new role as BDM Robinson will be tasked with taking a hands-on approach, getting out of the office to see as many intermediaries face-to-face as possible. His focus will be on helping them realise new opportunities to grow, diversify, and expand their market reach.

Robinson is the latest addition to Berkeley Alexander’s growing team of relationship specialists, as it seeks to be the IFA and mortgage intermediary GI provider of choice.

Geoff Hall, director at Berkeley Alexander, said:  “I am delighted to welcome Grant to the team. His expertise and personalised approach make him a perfect fit for our business.

“He joins at an exciting time as we focus on further building our differentiated proposition and accelerating our growth.”

Robinson added: “I am thrilled to be joining Berkeley Alexander. It’s a business with a refreshing approach, ambitious outlook, and unwavering commitment to continuously enhancing its value proposition.

“I can’t wait to start building new relationships and delivering even more value to existing ones.”
