Broker Insights, the leading Insurance Decision Intelligence platform, has appointed Brian McLaurin to the new role of Senior Vice President (U.S.) of Sales & Account Management to spearhead the company’s continued expansion across the United States. The VISION platform enables brokers to enhance their placement strategies and increase revenue.
The seasoned software executive has 26 years’ experience across the insurance and commercial real estate sectors, including a decade with Insurtechs. Brian has held leadership roles from Vice President of Sales to Chief Revenue Officer and was most recently Senior Director of Strategic Sales with insurance technology firm, Vertafore.
Brian has worked extensively with agents, brokers, carriers, and MGAs and brings a strong track record of scaling organizations and driving growth across both early-stage and established technology firms.
His appointment signals further growth in Broker Insights’ commitment to helping U.S. brokers and agents unlock revenue opportunities through data-led decision-making and placement optimization. Several billion dollars of U.S. premium income and more than 40% of the U.K.’s commercial gross written premiums are already analyzed by the platform.
“The U.S. market presents a tremendous opportunity for the kind of analytics technology that has been notably absent,” said Brian McLaurin. “Leveraging my experience and insights from hundreds of agency conversations, one message is consistent: there’s a clear and growing demand for the intelligence VISION provides. With market consolidation on the rise, the need for actionable insights that empower brokers to drive revenue and deepen carrier partnerships has never been greater. Broker Insights has already proven its value internationally, and we’re now uniquely positioned to deliver that same impact across the U.S. insurance landscape.”
In his new role, Brian will focus on building Broker Insights’ U.S. sales and account management teams while introducing the company’s VISION platform to leading brokers and agents across the country.
“Brian brings deep experience, proven leadership, and a strong network across the insurance industry,” said Travis Shank, President, U.S. at Broker Insights. “His appointment is a key step in our U.S. growth strategy, and we’re thrilled to have him lead our efforts to expand our footprint, support our clients, and deliver measurable results.”
