Award-winning insurance advisor Partners& has recently opened a brand-new office in Hereford.

With offices at The Cider Barn on Huntington Lane Three Elms, the Partners& team comprises many familiar faces from the insurance sector in Hereford. The team will be headed up by Andy Williams, who has been a broker in the city since 1994.

Partners& aims to combine the best traditions of broking, including exceptional technical advice and client service, with modern thinking and intelligent use of technology. The focus is on seamless advice across business and private client insurance, employee benefits, risk management and claims, supported by a culture of partnership between their people, their clients and their ecosystem.

Partner Andy Williams said: “The team and I are absolutely delighted to be back, working for a fantastic brand, Partners&. Hereford is our home, and we are proud to be bringing businesses this truly first-class local insurance advisory service.

"As the name suggests, we are aiming to build long term partnerships with our clients, using our many years of knowledge of the insurance market and our love of this city and its people. Whether you are insuring your company’s premises or taking out health insurance for your staff, we’d love to work with you.”

Partners& in Hereford is keen to support other local businesses and has become a sponsor of selective local football, rugby and golf venues. The team has also commissioned the creation of a sundial to be located in Aylestone Park. There will be an unveiling ceremony in the spring to mark its arrival.

Williams concluded: “The founders of Partners& recognised that the insurance industry was ready for a re-set. They wanted to create a better way and we are thrilled to be part of it. We have a talented team, and a vibrant and collaborative culture.

"We don’t want to be the biggest, but we do want to be the best. Our offices at The Cider Barn are perfect for our business, sitting in the heart of our target audience.”
