Collecting the award on behalf of Zurich, from TV presenter Kate Silverton, Jason Cripps, Zurich Intermediary Group Operations and Internal Consultancy Director, commented: “Being recognised as the best is a massive achievement and something that reflects the extraordinary amount of work that the team have put in over the last two years to become truly world class.”

Jason continued: “Being able to work together as a team, as well as with the wider Zurich community, enables us to adapt to any challenges and opportunities we face, delivering a superior service to our customers.”
