Winn Group Introduction Jeff Winn

INTRODUCTION BY JEFF WINN

Jeff Winn Executive Chairman

There always needs to be evolution in any business, so it gives me a great sense of pride to see how Winn Group has become a major player in the industry over the last 20 years.

Growing to encapsulate a number of brands that combine to deliver the best one-stopshop in accident and claims management, the vision is to continue the rapid growth in provision of non-fault insurance and claims services to insurance brokers and the public. The vision is to continue this growth at a rapid pace, whilst maintaining a high level of service and a cooperative approach with suppliers and those in the industry. Companies who prosper need to be adept at change. There has been so much legal reform over the past ten years that it has swept away a lot of competitors and made other competitors unprofitable. For Winn Group’s most recent financial year results, a healthy profit has been posted, whilst many of our competitors have posted large losses and reduced volumes. On current trends, it looks likely that the next financial year to March 2023 will hit between £120m and £150m turnover, making it one of the biggest independent firms in the area. This has led to significant recruitment, with staff numbers rising from 350 to 450 and continuing to rise towards 500 by the end of the year. As a company, you need a good management team who act quickly and decisively to change course or adapt as the different legal reforms come into play.

It is good to see that, at all levels, staff have performed very well, and the management structure is the strongest I have seen since we began. The growth in the last 12 months has been spectacular and looks likely to continue.
