Brendan

Thomson James - Brendan Mulligan (1981)

The Commercial Insurance Broking sector is increasingly dominated by a small number of businesses focused more and more on supporting certain Insurance Companies and generating revenue just to service debt levels created by a decade of acquisition driven growth. I established Thomson James in 2011 to go back to the basics - Quality advice, Personal service, always remembering it's "Client first, Client last!"Support for Community Groups/Charities and Sports Clubs is close to my heart so Thomson James donates 20% of its gross revenue to causes supported and nominated by our clients.
