Equity Insurance Group has announced the launch of a job grading structure linked to pay and benefits, and a pay-for-performance scheme, for its 1,200 UK staff.

The insurer has categorised job roles with benefits and salary being aligned to each band in order to achieve greater consistency.

It plans to go live with the new structure at the end of June.

The main categories include claims, central function, director broking and underwriting.

Equity’s head of compensation and benefits Ricky D’Ash said: “It is a way of controlling how the business is run, controlling salary costs and making sure people are treated fairly going forward, with more transparency.”

The company will also introduce a pay-for-performance scheme for all employees. It currently offers elements of pay-for-performance to call-centre staff.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
