While clients may worry that valuations will increase their sums insured and premiums, they could be leaving themselves exposed in the event of a claim if they’re not set at the right level.
In 2024, our in-house risk team surveyed around £83bn worth of property, including some of the most architecturally beautiful and complex risks in the UK.
You can watch specialist risk experts David Parkinson, Technical Services Manager, and Claire Attenborough, Principal Risk Management Surveyor, talk through ways you can help your client avoid underinsurance.
Claire has worked in insurance for over 30 years, starting in Claims and progressing through several roles, including Insurance Consultant and Risk Management Surveyor.
Claire is a Principal Risk Management Surveyor at Ecclesiastical, responsible for Valuation and Property matters, as well as research, development, and training in these areas.
In addition to ACII, Claire has the NEBOSH National General Certificate. She plays an active role in the CII, both nationally and locally.
David is responsible for delivering risk management technical services. Part of his role is to develop the expertise of the survey team. He also focuses on developing effective risk management tools, including guidance material, training seminars, and workshops.
David has extensive risk experience, having started life with Ecclesiastical as a Risk Control surveyor. He has held many positions within the company, including Technical Specialist and Property Manager, and has knowledge of highly complex risks.
