Brown and Brown acquires London-based employee benefits specialist

Brown and Brown Europe has acquired Drewberry to strengthen its health insurance and employee benefits offerings.

Based in Brighton and London, Drewberry provides employee benefits services, workplace pension support, consumer and business protection and private medical insurance.

It was founded in 2009 by directors Andrew Jenkinson and Tom Conner.

The deal will see Drewberry become part of Premier Choice Group (PCG), Brown and Brown’s health, employee benefit and protection division.

Stephen Hough, director at PCG, said: “Drewberry has established itself as a forward-thinking, service-led business in the employee benefits market.

“Its unique technology platform, workplace pension service and specialisation in key growth areas align perfectly with our vision at PCG and we’re excited to welcome Jenkinson , Conner and the entire Drewberry team to PCG.”

Roles

Jenkinson and Conner will join the PCG leadership team, while all Drewberry staff will remain in their current roles and locations.

Jenkinson said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for Drewberry to join forces with a global leader like Brown and Brown, while continuing to deliver the tailored, personal services that our customers have come to expect.”
