Our Philosophy

Driven by our client-first philosophy, we proudly champion local government with other levels of government, the legal fraternity, regulators and with underwriters who protect councils.

“JLT provides more than simply coverage for our public sector clients. We bring long-term protection for our clients through sustainable and value-enhancing products and services. Our Public Sector team works tirelessly to bring our clients the benefit of their long experience in the sector, including understanding claims trends, stakeholder requirements and legislative changes. These and other factors culminate into a level of sector expertise and commitment that is quite simply unmatched by our competitors,”  Gary Okely, Head of Public Sector.

What a client-first philosophy means to us:

As part of our “client-first” philosophy, we place the needs of the Public Sector first. We do this by providing products and services that provide confidence, reduce volatility and that support the unique challenges of the Public Sector over the long term. JLT’s work with mutual funds in the local government market in particular, demonstrates this ability to work innovatively with our clients to produce effective risk protection solutions designed to protect the long term interests of their staff and community.

Our values:

We actively listen and, with deep-seated expertise and knowledge built over decades, we place our clients, our members and the public sector we serve at the heart of what we do, each and every day.

We respond appropriately and effectively. Whether it is delivering bespoke risk management cover, designing tailored services and programs, tracking vulnerabilities and risks, or managing Mutual schemes on your behalf, our clients receive trusted advice and protection – when and where they need it.

JLT has been serving the public sector for more than 50 years and we look forward to many more, helping to build resilience, community-by-community, for a stronger Australia.

JLT – where the trust is mutual.
