PACE Insurance was created in 2009 when four individuals (Directors Dwayne Haydon, Grant Bishop, Jason Bakras and Milton Gonzalez) became dissatisfied with working for large corporate brokers where system-based solutions were the norm, and pressures to cross-sell were reducing their ability to add genuine value to their clients.
Determined to address a gap in the market for highly tailored broking services, they built PACE under a simple commitment to putting client needs first including prioritising upfront risk management – a model that they stand by today.
14 years later, PACE Insurance remains Australian owned and operated and places over $51M worth of premium, employees 25 staff in both Melbourne and Adelaide. Specialising in commercial property, hospitality, strata, professional risk, manufacturing, and warehouse logistics, PACE has built a reputation for deep industry knowledge and reach – supported by their local and global reach, with international partners such as the UK based Tysers [link: https://www.tysers.com/ ].
