Welcome to NFU Mutual Cirencester agency, located in a magnificent barn conversion next to the Royal Agricultural University.
We are a friendly, welcoming and helpful team that will always strive to provide a professional and personal service. We offer motor, household, equine and business insurance policies, with specialist knowledge in farming, rural estates and property ownership, alongside high value home insurances. The local, tailored service that we offer is the reason why customers have trusted us with their insurances for over 50 years here in Cirencester.
We can also arrange financial planning and advice in relation to pensions, investments, life insurances, and inheritance tax planning with our in-house NFU Mutual Financial Adviser, and we also help customers manage the safety procedures within their workplace with our risk management services. We are centred on Cirencester, but cover the whole of Gloucestershire including Fairford, Lechlade, South Cerney, Cricklade, Minchinhampton, Chalford & other surrounding areas.
For an informal chat about how we can assist you going forward, please give us a call or pop into the office for a cup of tea and some good conversation!
NFU Mutual
Our team
Tom Traish
Senior Agent
I became an Agent in 2014, and am now very proud to be the Senior Agent here in Cirencester! I am an associate member of the Chartered Insurance Institute, and despite having many responsibilities day-to-day, I still spread my time amongst all areas of the business, particularly specialising in farm insurance, high-net-worth home insurance, and commercial insurance. I am also our NFU Group Secretary, and take massive amounts of pride in being able to contribute within our local farming community. I am always looking for ways to help both existing and new clients, as well as placing high importance in creating a happy and motivated working environment for our staff members. In my free time I love hiking, golfing, rugby, and more or less anything else that can be done outdoors!
Tom Soanes
Wider-Market Agent
I am proud to have joined Tom in partnership as of April 2018, and on top of my share of the day-to-day running of the agency, I am a commercial insurance specialist and cover all areas of insurance and risk management with clients. Having grown up locally and worked in financial services for my entire career to date (with my experience spanning from financial advice, to investment management, to insurance), I am very keen to connect with businesses both within our local community and wider-area, and take great pleasure in building relationships and learning everything I can about a business in order to establish how we can offer assistance. Outside of the office, I am a very keen hiker and camper, and enjoy a good round of golf despite my limited skills!
Lesley Partridge
Office Manager
I have been the Office Manager here in Cirencester for over 20 years, and I am qualified in all classes of personal, motor, equine & commercial insurance, and can help with any enquiries that you may have - whether they are general in nature, quotations, or claims. I handle all of our accounts and billing systems, and have always found that clear, practical and helpful assistance is a recipe for success! My real love is hiking and I am well on my way to climbing every major peak in Britain, and I also love to spend time with my family and friends.
Harry Whitehouse
Account Executive
I’ve been with the Cirencester agency since 2015, and really love my place in the team! I’ve gained licenses in our motor, personal, high net worth and commercial covers, and am proud to have become a certified member of the Chartered Insurance Institute. I currently specialise in our motor and personal products, and like to think that I will always have a happy and friendly demeanour and excellent eye for detail! I’m also a keen Liverpool FC fan, and play football in Cirencester’s top 6-a side league.
Thomas Baker
High-Net-Worth Specialist
I joined the office in 2015, and am the dedicated High-Net-Worth Specialist in the team. My role is essentially to ensure that any current or prospective client’s insurance needs are well met and that our various services are presented in order to fill any gaps in cover, normally with a massive amount of enthusiasm! I specialise in our commercial & high-net-worth property insurance products, and hold licenses in motor, personal, property, and equine insurances as well. Outside of the office, I enjoy playing golf and football, and making the occasional visit to Cheltenham Racecourse!
Daniel Gale
Commercial Sales Associate
I am the Commercial Sales Associate for the NFU Mutual agency in Cirencester, having joined the team in September 2018. I’ve been working in the insurance industry for the last 12 years as an Insurance Broker and Branch Manager, and more recently as a Relationship Executive. I have a passion for looking after my customers - I will always take the time to listen to your needs and build a long-term business relationship, as this allows me to advise my clients to the highest level when it comes to their insurance requirements. I am a keen golfer, love my football and spending time with my friends and family.
Paul Brewer
Specialist Claims Handler
As the specialist in-house Claims Handler in Cirencester, my role is to make the claims experience for our clients as smooth and stress-free as possible. I hope that we never have to speak (!), but should the unfortunate occur, be rest-assured that I will be efficient and re-assuring throughout the process. I am also licensed in our motor, home, and lifestyle covers, and in my spare time I enjoy playing rugby for Cirencester RFC II’s, as well as helping out as one of the leaders at Cotswold District Explorer Scouts.
Jack Shiers
Customer Services Adviser
I joined the team here at Cirencester in November 2018, and am proud to be part of such a fantastic team! I have already gained my motor and home insurance licenses, meaning that I very much look forward to helping customers with the majority of their day-to-day insurance needs. I also manage our very efficient renewals process, and am always keen to take on as many responsibilities within the office as my time will allow! I’m a jolly, friendly person who enjoys a challenge and talking to people. I am also a football fan and hope to join a local team come the start of next season.
James Craig
Financial Adviser
I am NFU Mutual’s Chartered Financial Adviser for the Cirencester agency, and I have over 15 years’ experience in the financial sector. Financial planning is all about ensuring you enjoy the future that you want, and as an NFU Mutual Chartered Financial Adviser, I will always endeavour to help you put the right financial plan in place to support your goals throughout life. I can provide the help you need with pensions, investments, life insurance, and inheritance tax planning, in order to ensure the right protection is in place for your family’s future.
