Kristen Garner, who has worked at PIC Insurance Brokers for the past 18-years in a variety of roles, is to become its new chief executive.

Most recently she was the company's chief broking operations officer and before that head of product and process.

PIC Insurance Brokers was founded in 1989 by Garner’s father Mike, who passed away in March 2022. The company remains a family-owned business.

“I’m proud to accept this opportunity and honoured to continue dad’s legacy at PIC,” Garner says.

“As a business, PIC continues to invest with long-term initiatives, most notably with the upgrade of our core operating system.

"Our focus remains on building strong relationships with our partners and providing exceptional service to our clients; many of whom have been with us for over 20 years.”

PIC Insurance Brokers has been operating under interim CEO Bruce Morrison for the past 10 months. Garner will formally start her new role on January 6, while Morrison will return to his previous role as chairman.
