North and East Down Agency - Saintfield

Having been attracted to the values and ethos of NFU Mutual, I have been a Partner in the North and East Down Agency since 2001. I strive to ensure that you receive a first class personal service and that your insurance needs are tailored personally to suit you and your circumstances. I prefer to meet you face to face, getting to know you and building a lasting business relationship. I take pride in what sets NFU Mutual apart from our competitors; putting you (the customer) first and providing excellent products with a personal local service.  

I joined NFU Mutual North and East Down Agency as a Partner in 2011 after working in a neighbouring agency for a previous 8 years. I’m a graduate of Harper Adams University with my roots firmly in the agricultural sector. My role is fundamentally about getting to know you, your family and your business, farming or commercial, providing you with suitable advice and solutions which give you peace of mind. 

Justin can provide help on all NFU Mutual general insurance products and specialises in providing commercial insurance, both for farmers and other businesses. Justin enjoys getting a feel for a business by visiting the premises to properly understand the cover required. He has been with NFU Mutual North and East Down Agency since 2003.

Since becoming a Partner in the agency in 2012 I have developed new and existing relationships with many customers who value the local professional advice that I am able to provide. I look forward to discussing your personal, farming or commercial insurance needs and offering you first class advice and service tailored towards your own insurance requirements.

I joined NFU Mutual in 2008 and in that time have built up excellent relationships with our clients. I deal with all of our general insurance products and specialise in farming and commercial business. I enjoy dealing with the variety of different business types we insure.

As the Office Manager I am responsible for the daily running of the office and managing the team within the North and East Down Agency to ensure you receive first class customer service. I also co-ordinate the financial services within our agency. This is a growing part of our offering and I am here to provide you with information around our advised and non-advised services in the area of pensions, protection and investments. Providing excellent customer service is our aim at Newtownards which has you, the customer, at the heart of what we do.

I can deal with your enquiries in relation to our range of motor & personal insurance products. You can also contact me with policy amendments, renewal enquiries or claims updates.

I have been with the agency for 7 years, after graduating with a BA Hons in Business Studies and working in financial services for a few years. I have built up a strong knowledge of motor, personal and commercial insurances. My specialist area is equine insurance as I have a lifetime of involvement with horses and am keen to help you with any related issues whilst providing you with the highest level of service.

I joined the agency in 2017 and I am here to help you with your existing motor, personal and commercial policies. Personal local service is at the heart of what we strive to provide, and I take pride in working towards this aim.
