Van Pricing
In May 2017, Gladiator Commercial, our van broker, changed to Admiral Van, our direct insurance provider. In the 5 years since then, Van has gone from generating around £2m profit per year to £20 - £25m - a ten-fold increase.

The cross-risk pricing team is responsible for the pricing of these Multi products. Diversification is a key strategic pillar in Admiral’s business strategy and the cross-risk pricing team plays an important role in growing diversified portfolio for Admiral.

What areas do you look after?
I recruit for positions in the Pricing/Data area.
Tell us about you and your Admiral story?
I started working for Admiral in 2012 as a Customer Service advisor where my focus was customer queries and policy changes. I was keen to expand my knowledge within the company and worked for our Telematics area, closely followed by the Data Validations team. I knew I wanted to progress within this growing company and developed into an Assistant Team Manager in our Customer Loyalty department. Within a year I evolved into a Team Manager and continued this role for 5 years. I later had the opportunity to manage a team within our Complaints department where focus was based on customer outcomes and FCA guidelines. People and talent have always been my passion, which has led me to my current position in Recruitment which I started in 2023.
Why would you recommend Admiral?
Admiral’s philosophy is ‘People who like what they do, do it better’. This company certainly stands by this and in my 11 years here, I have been supported, guided and looked after.
The flexibility and work/life balance this business offers still blows me away and I can’t imagine working anywhere else.
Another area that stands out to me is the reward and recognition focussed on staff. I have attended numerous awards, updates and ceremonies that celebrates departments and the people who work in them.
I couldn’t recommend Admiral enough!
