Our team
Tom Shepherd
Partner
As a Partner, my role is to help and advise those people involved in running the farming and agricultural businesses we insure. I started my association with NFU Mutual as a graduate trainee in 1999 and have worked all over the South East and Midlands. I have an active role in the local community as Group Secretary for the Harborough branch of the National Farmers Union. I am often kept busy by my horse riding and sailing teenagers. When I can, I run with the Kettering Town Harriers and volunteer at the Kettering Arts Centre.
Linzie Maycock, BSc (Hons) Cert CII
Partner
Since graduating from the Royal Agricultural College I have been a partner at Shepherd & Maycock for several years. As NFU Mutual estate insurance expert I spend time with both land agents and estate owners/managers advising them on their complex insurance needs ranging from estate property and land insurance to listed buildings and stately homes. Building long term relationships with both business owners and NFU Mutual Underwriters I spend the majority of my time out and about advising new and existing clients on their complex business needs. My specialisms are helping clients with their property portfolio, businesses in food/drink, hospitality, retail & wholesale and logistics sectors. On a personal level, having played low goal polo in the past I have retained my Hurlingham Polo Association membership and I take part in some of their social scenes. Alongside this in my spare time I enjoy spending time with my horse, walking my dog and socialising at Young Farmers. To find out how I can help your business please get in touch.

My role is to develop partnerships with companies and high net worth individuals, I am responsible for the generation of new business within these sectors then managing the accounts once the business has been placed.

In my spare time you can usually find me riding in the beautiful Leicestershire countryside, walking my dog or socialising with friends.
Zoe Taylor
Personal & High Net Worth Insurance Consultant
I have been with NFU Mutual now for five years. I moved to the world of insurance after 10 years in the motor trade industry. I pride myself in the service I offer in relation to all personal insurances, whether they be for new clients or existing ones. I also specialise in bespoke insurance policies which cover our high net worth clients. In my spare time, I enjoy going out for meals with my family or trying to keep fit in the gym. If I’m not doing either of these, I can normally be found running around after my son who certainly keeps me on my toes.
Claire Coppin

I joined the team at NFU Mutual Market Harborough in May 2014. Prior to working here I worked for five years at Welland Valley Feeds whom I left back in March 2013 to spend a few months travelling around Canada. My role within the office ranges from handling incoming calls and daily queries along with prospecting and quoting for new small businesses with a speciality in pubs and the catering trade. In my spare time I can be found riding my horse, walking the family dog and spending time and going out with my friends and family. If I’m not taking part in any of these I can also be found working at a local village pub a couple of nights a week where I can also see a few familiar NFU Mutual faces from time to time!

I started working for NFU Mutual in Market Harborough in 2010 after graduating from Harper Adams University College. My main role within the office is to deal with a variety of incoming enquiries from new and existing customers, specialising in farming accounts. This can be for new quotes, policy amendments, claims or NFU membership. When I am not at work I enjoy spending time on the farm where my sister and I have 250 ewes including a small pedigree flock of Oxford Downs. I also enjoy riding and spending time with my highland pony.
Alison Atkins

I am the Life Lead Coordinator, making appointments and assisting our Financial Adviser in helping our customers with their savings, investments, protection and pensions needs. I am also Accounts Supervisor, responsible for cashiering and day to day accounts queries, and ensuring renewal documentation reaches our clients in a timely manner. My background is in farming. I am married to a farmer and was involved in the day to day running of the family farm until a couple of years ago when we made the decision to give up the farm and concentrate on the contracting side of our business. I work at Market Harborough market on Wednesday where I weigh and book in the lambs and you may well have seen me there or at local farm sales where I regularly help out.
