About us

Through our deep knowledge of the Local Government, JLT has developed a unique method to provide protection solutions for Local Government clients. 

Our Mutuals

Through our deep knowledge of the Local Government, JLT has developed a unique method to provide protection solutions for Local Government clients.

Since 1972 when we first committed to deliver specialist services to Local Government, our knowledge of the sector drove the development of the largest and most diverse Local Government Mutual Schemes nationwide. Every Mutual is specifically tailored to meet the specific risk profile and need of Local Government in the areas of Workers' Compensation, Public Liability and Professional Indemnity, Property, Motor Vehicle, Personal Accident and other risk areas. Since the first Mutual was launched in 1986, we have continued to explore opportunities and now another 14 Mutual Schemes operate throughout Australia.

A key strength of the Mutual Schemes is that they provide stability and confidence to Local Government regardless of the volatility that traditional insurance markets can often provide. There is no greater evidence that the limited impacts to Local Government from the significant insurance market cycles that arose from the collapse of insurance company HIH and the September 11 tragedy in the United States in 2001. 

All Mutual Schemes are designed to provide strategic and individual input from their members along with a range of tailored and dedicated risk management and claims management services.

Our Services

  • Management of self-insured funds (mutual funds) including Liability, Workers’ Compensation, Property, Crime, Councillors’ and Officers’ (C&O), Motor Vehicle and Fidelity Guarantee
  • General insurance broking and associated services for all Government-related industries
  • Risk management services, including loss adjusting and valuation
  • In-house claims management resources

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 insurance solutions designed to protect the long term interests of their staff and community.

“JLT provides more than simply insurance 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,” said Gary Okely, CEO – Public Sector.
