In their new client service advisor roles, Claudia and Faith will support a portfolio of clients across the UK, developing a deep understanding of their businesses and commercial risk requirements. Their responsibilities will include negotiating insurance renewal terms, managing mid-term adjustments, liaising with insurers, and preparing renewal reports.
Claudia Nash brings 16 years of industry experience to Aon. Before joining the firm, she spent a decade at Howden Insurance (formerly Aston Lark) as a senior commercial account handler, where she worked alongside client directors to support clients and negotiate new business and renewals.
Faith Bardsley joined Aon in September 2022 through its apprenticeship scheme. Since then, she has successfully progressed from her initial role as a commercial risk apprentice to UK business service specialist, and now to client service advisor. During her apprenticeship, the now 20-year-old Faith also completed the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) Level 4 Diploma in Insurance.
Matt Foy, head of office Aon Manchester said: “Congratulations to Faith on her well-deserved promotion, and a warm welcome to Claudia.
“Since joining the Aon apprenticeship scheme, Faith has proven herself to be a valuable and talented member of the team. Her promotion is testament to her hard work and dedication. Claudia brings a wealth of experience and knowledge and has seamlessly integrated into the corporate team.
“By attracting and nurturing highly skilled talent and fostering a supportive culture, we continue to invest in our capabilities to ensure we deliver first-class service to our clients.”
Claudia Nash said: "I applied for the role at Aon as the firm has a great reputation and I was keen to progress from commercial into the corporate sector and gain more technical knowledge and experience. Since joining I have already learnt a great deal and felt welcomed and supported by my colleagues. I look forward to continued growth and future opportunities within such a forward-thinking organisation."
