NIBA seeks young broker award nominations

Nominations for the 2022 round of the Young Professional Broker of the Year Award are now open, the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) has announced.

Anyone in the industry can nominate a top emerging talent in the insurance broking space, NIBA says.

The Vero-backed award celebrates an outstanding industry member under the age of 35. There are five state and territory level winners who attend a four-week professional development program and enter the Vero Young Brokers Alumni.

The five go on to compete for the national Warren Tickle Memorial Award and a tailored learning experience worth $10,000, courtesy of Vero.

“The development program sponsored by Vero is fantastic at providing insights into your own personal development, while helping to equip you with tools that you will use to further your career,” 2021 national winner Mitchell Wight said.

Entries are to be assessed by the judging panel throughout March and April, and finalists are announced at regional events in May and July.

“If you are a part of the insurance industry in any capacity and know a young broker who is doing a wonderful job looking after the needs of their clients, you are invited to nominate them,” NIBA said.

Nominations can be made here.
