The Tasker Insurance Group has acquired Insure Risk Limited, subject to FCA approval. The
deal is the second within the past 12 months for Tasker Insurance and the fifth over the past
2 and a half years and supports Tasker’s strategy of expanding further on its existing
regional footprint and extending its specialist capabilities. It comes soon after the
announcement of the acquisition of Tasker by Jensten Group and aligns to the expanded
Group’s strategy of developing a regional footprint across the UK through acquisition and
organic growth.
Located in Altrincham, Cheshire and established in 2010, Insure Risk is a £2.5m GWP
commercial broking business. The Insure Risk team will add further depth to Tasker
Insurance Brokers in the North West bringing mid corporate capability and extending the
Tasker PI capability within the North West region.
On completion, Insure Risk’s MD, Ged Murray, will work as a consultant to support the
smooth transition of the business, whilst fellow Insure Risk executive director shareholder,
Paul Denny, will take up the role as Director – Corporate North West for Tasker.
Paul will also join the Tasker Insurance Brokers Management Committee, reporting to the
MD of Tasker Insurance Brokers, Robin Thomson.
Robert Organ, CEO of Tasker Insurance Group, commented “having known Ged and Paul for
some time, I am delighted to welcome them and their team into the business. They are very
much aligned to our thinking and approach to business, which will be part of the reason for
our joint success in the future”.
Ged Murray, commented “we have always felt that Tasker Insurance would be a great home
for our business. Rob, Robin and the broader Tasker team have been easy to work with
throughout the process and I know that Tasker is the right home for my team and our
clients”.
Paul Denny said “Robin and I have worked closely together over the past few months, I’m
excited about Insure Risk being the platform for further investment and growth for the
business in the North West and I can’t wait to get started and lead the team forward”.
Robin Thomson concluded by saying “its great to see Tasker continue to grow and develop,
with acquisitions remaining very firmly part of our strategy going forwards”.
