Brokerage Fahrenheit Insurance has been founded by Sydney-based Faria Anzum and Jack Hazlehurst, who will focus on construction and transport covers.

“We’ve always been passionate about using technology to make complicated things simpler,” said Ms Anzum, who previously spent six years at graphic design platform Canva.

“With Fahrenheit, we’re bringing that thinking to insurance, focusing on making the experience easier to navigate while keeping the personal relationships that matter.

“We want customers to feel confident about their cover, understand their options and know they have someone to turn to.”

Mr Hazlehurst was previously a senior software engineer at tech giant Atlassian.
