Carly Hibbins - Adroit Ballarat

This week we're joined by Carly Hibbins, Managing Principal of Adroit Ballarat. We chat leadership, career twists and turns, signing adoption papers and how to keep a brokerage running smoothly in a town where it's either freezing cold or talking about being freezing cold. Plenty of laughs, a few insurance war stories and a great chat with one of Australia's insurance standouts.

Joseph Tissera - Austbrokers Countrywide

Hugh Jackman is widely celebrated in Hollywood as a triple threat, a handsome bloke who can act, dance and sing. Our very own Joseph Tissera is a triple threat in our eyes too: he speaks Spanish, can cut some serious shapes on the dance floor, and to top it all off, he’s a cracking insurance broker. From humble beginnings in the finance world in Colombo to making a name for himself as a young insurance professional in Melbourne, Joseph’s journey is one of hard work, resilience and saying yes to opportunities.

Amy Gleed - QBE

This week, I snuck in a quick chat with the Partnerships Manager… or is it Manager of Partnerships? Either way, titles don’t matter when you’re as good at the job as Amy Gleed from QBE. Amy joined me to talk all things insurance, broker relationships and her journey working her way up through the industry to become one of the great connectors between brokers and underwriters. A fun chat with a genuinely good person who knows the game inside and out.

Elise Lloyd - Austbrokers Countrywide

This week we’re joined by our resident gun-toting, pseudo-American, sports-hating motor claims guru, Elise Lloyd. Between Australia and overseas, Elise has done just about every job imaginable in car insurance, making her the perfect person to explain why your “minor bumper tap” somehow turns into a six-page assessment report. What we didn’t expect to uncover was Elise’s absolute fear of driving with passengers, something I discovered firsthand on the freeway recently. The experience rattled her manager, riding shotgun, enough to suggest she come on the podcast and three hours later this episode was born. It’s claims chaos, questionable driving confidence and the sort of sideways yarns that prove insurance people really shouldn’t be left unsupervised with microphones.

Jono Allen - The Re-Allen (Re-Edited)

We went back to where it all started and fixed what should’ve been right the first time, cleaner audio, tighter edit, same great guest. Its episode 1 as it should've sounded.
