Commercial lines director Mike Crane said: “We had a great year at LV= Broker with a number of key account wins. As we continue to grow in 2014 we want to ensure that brokers remain at the heart of everything we do and these new appointments will help us do that. Both Stephen and Chris have valuable experience that will help us grow our business within the south and south west regions. This is a very exciting time at LV= Broker and we are delighted to have them on board.”
