The Tasker Insurance Group has announced the acquisition of Insure Risk Limited, subject to FCA approval. Located in Altrincham, Cheshire, Insure Risk is a £2.5m GWP commercial broking business which Tasker believes will add further depth to Tasker Insurance Brokers in the North West, bringing mid corporate capability and extending the Tasker PI capability within the region.

On completion, Insure Risk’s MD, Ged Murray, will work as a consultant to support the smooth transition of the business, while fellow Insure Risk executive director shareholder Paul Denny will take up a role as director corporate north west for Tasker.

Robert Organ, chief executive of Tasker Insurance Group, said: “Having known Ged and Paul for some time, I am delighted to welcome them and their team into the business. They are very much aligned to our thinking and approach to business, which will be part of the reason for our joint success in the future.”

The deal is the second within the past 12 months for Tasker Insurance and the fifth over the past two and a half years. It comes soon after the announcement of the acquisition of Tasker by Jensten Group and aligns to the expanded group’s strategy of developing a regional footprint across the UK through acquisition and organic growth.
