Gallagher strengthens support for ACE New Zealand members through new multi-year partnership

Gallagher is pleased to announce a new multi-year partnership with ACE New Zealand, strengthening our commitment to supporting the country's consulting and engineering community with trusted insurance, risk management and employee benefits expertise.

Gallagher Chief Broking Officer Mark Jones says the partnership aligns strongly with Gallagher’s focus on supporting organisations to thrive in complex and fast changing environments.

“This partnership goes beyond insurance solutions. It’s about providing trusted advice, practical guidance and opportunities for ACE members to upskill. With our deep knowledge of the consulting and engineering sector, we’re excited to work with ACE to support its members.”

Consulting and engineering firms operate in environments where professional responsibilities, client expectations, regulatory obligations and people related risks intersect. ACE Chief Executive Helen Davidson says those pressures are felt across businesses of all sizes.

“Running a consulting or engineering firm comes with a unique set of risks, from professional responsibilities to looking after your team’s wellbeing,” she says.

“This partnership is designed to make navigating those challenges simpler, clearer and more connected, ultimately empowering our members to run successful and sustainable businesses.”

As one of New Zealand’s leading insurance brokers and risk management partners, Gallagher brings sector expertise and comprehensive protection across a wide range of business risks. Through First Capital, a Gallagher company, ACE members will also benefit from specialist financial advice, employee benefits solutions and support to build people‑centred wellbeing programmes.

Davidson says this partnership is central to ACE’s long-term vision for the sector.

“As well as competitive insurance and business management products and services, this partnership is about building capability across the sector. We’ll work with Gallagher Insurance and First Capital to deliver joint webinars and events that give our members access to expert insights and guidance on industry issues and trends.”

Gallagher is proud to stand alongside ACE New Zealand in its mission to enable consulting and engineering firms to make confident, well-informed decisions. We look forward to supporting ACE members with comprehensive protection, sector specific insights and the confidence to succeed in an evolving risk landscape.
