In this episode, you'll meet Brian McInerney, one of the founding fathers of one of the top insurance brokerages in Australia. He’s the 'M' in MGA insurance.
We will of course talk about MGA’s astronomical growth from humble beginnings back in 1975 to now over 65 thousand clients and a branch network across Australia and one in Cambodia.
But we’ll also find out more about the Brian’s background, his humble beginnings growing up in Melrose with his family, his love for footy and tennis, a high school stint at Sacred Heart College to then doing an apprenticeship as a fitter and turner working for BHP at Iron Knob and Iron Baron.
So how does a fitter and turner, end up in insurance to then running one of the biggest insurance brokerages in Australia?
It’s an inspirational tale – you could also say it's a 'rags-to-riches' story.
He’s now 80 years old and formerly retired and misses it like crazy!!! But he's still got his toe in the water and sits on the Board.
Enjoy the journey with Brian McInerney.
