Responsive. Accurate. Effective.
A New Level of Professional Service
Primus is an energetic new business launched in Spring 2019 to offer a clear alternative in the broking of Group Medical and Group Life Insurance schemes.
Our purpose is to provide high-end services to astute clients; clients looking for greater responsiveness, more attention to detail, and effective advocacy of their interests with insurers.
Primus breathes new life into insurance conversations. At the heart of our business is the idea that Employee Benefits insurance should be more than an annual administration process; instead, it should provide value to your business and your staff all year round and mark you out as an exceptional employer.
If this philosophy resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.
