Who we are

Gallagher is one of the world’s top three insurance brokerage and risk management companies, with a network that provides services in more than 130 countries. In New Zealand, we advise on, and arrange business, rural, personal and life and health insurance on behalf of around 160,000 clients. Previously known as Crombie Lockwood in New Zealand, we have a long history of helping Kiwis with their insurance needs.

Values-driven culture

Our Gallagher people are driven to do their best for clients, colleagues, and communities. Our unique culture is based on shared values such as integrity, inclusion, respect, and collaboration in the best interest of the client, and professional excellence.

Our Client Care principles form the foundation on which our brokers build trust with our clients. This commitment is also reflected in The Gallagher Way — the set of 25 guiding tenets that shape how we do business and inform our actions every day.

Our people

Our clients are supported by a team of around 1000 insurance professionals in more than 30 offices across New Zealand, in locations from Invercargill to Kaitaia. With our characteristic blend of local expertise and global reach, we can support our clients wherever they do business
