‘As a well-respected regional broker with clear growth ambitions, it is an ideal cultural and strategic fit for Brokerbility,’ says managing director

Goodmans Insurance Brokers has joined broker community network Brokerbility, following its departure from Bravo Networks.

The firm is the third to make the switch between networks in recent times, following the moves of Apollo Insurance Brokers and Cass Stephens in 2025.

Following its establishment in 1990, Hampshire-based Goodmans Insurance Brokers has grown to employ 11 permanent staff and posted a gross written premium (GWP) of £7m in its most recent results.

Brokerbility said that the transition of the three firms was “further strengthening” its “growing national presence”.

The network said it aimed to “provide our members with a distinct competitive advantage across the essential pillars of our business”, which it described as “partnerships with insurers and suppliers, our dedicated employees and the satisfaction of our valued customers”.

Expanding network

John Dunn, managing director at Brokerbility, said: “Goodmans Insurance Brokers is an excellent addition to our expanding community network.

“As a well-respected regional broker with clear growth ambitions, it is an ideal cultural and strategic fit for Brokerbility. Entering 2026, we have strong momentum as more brokers seek the support and stability of our community model.

“In an uncertain economic environment, brokers value the superior insurer deals, experienced team and market-leading proposition that Brokerbility uniquely provides.”

Trevor Pretty, principal at Goodmans Insurance Brokers, added: “We were attracted to Brokerbility because of its enhanced proposition, particularly access to markets, insurer services and its expanding affiliate partnership programme, which delivers real value.

“We look forward to working closely with Dunn and his experienced team as we enter the next exciting phase of our development.”
