’This acquisition is another important step in our growth strategy,’ says chief executive
Verlingue has acquired Corpad Employee Benefits as the broker continues to expand its employee benefits business in the UK.
The deal marks the latest step in Verlingue’s growth strategy for its employee benefits division, following the acquisition of EBCam in December 2025 and the integration of Brunsdon Employee Benefits in 2023.
Corpad has developed a national employee benefits consultancy business, working with employers across the UK to design and manage programmes tailored to the needs of individual organisations and their workforces.
Stuart Stroud, chief executive at Corpad Employee Benefits, said: “We are proud of the business we have built and the trusted relationships we have developed with our clients over many years.
”Joining Verlingue is an exciting next step for our business. We were attracted by the strength of its culture, its long-term vision and its commitment to client service. We look forward to building on the relationships we have established while benefiting from the additional scale and expertise that Verlingue provides.”
‘Important step’
Verlingue said the acquisition enhances its employee benefits capabilities and brings additional specialist expertise into the business, further strengthening its support for employers navigating an increasingly complex workforce and benefits landscape.
