David Beard, who founded Coastsure in 2009 will join the Ausure team in a leadership and mentoring role, using his extensive experience to support and guide Ausure brokers.
“Coastsure decided to become an AR of Ausure over a decade ago, after we recognised the numerous synergies, particularly in respect to our cultural & professional values. This natural alignment made joining the Ausure group an obvious choice in our continued evolution as a professional and proactive insurance broking service for our growing client portfolio. This initiative, to finally merge the business fully into the national Ausure Broking group, was again the next logical progression.” -David Beard.
“Coastsure merging with Ausure will bolster our Broking Business with additional size, scale and management experience. We are really looking forward to the Coastsure staff joining our team.” Scott McCarthy explains.
