Marsh Wellington is the local branch of Marsh, an insurance broker helping New Zealand businesses arrange the right cover for their needs. The office is located at Level 2, 20 Customhouse Quay, Wellington 6140, and is open 8.30am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday.
The Wellington team focuses on supporting small and medium-sized businesses across the central New Zealand region, with particular expertise across industries including real estate, manufacturing and property. The office's approach centres on brokers who understand not just the cover itself, but the specific terminology and challenges of a client's own industry.
Marsh Wellington can arrange a range of business insurance covers, including commercial property insurance, insurance for manufacturers, transport and truck insurance, real estate agent insurance, hotel insurance, general business insurance, insurance premium funding, and professional indemnity insurance.
The Wellington office is staffed by a team of insurance brokers, including Mark Keating (Insurance Broker - Healthcare), Kerry Gosper, Rebecca Fieldhouse, Jordan Tuite, Veni Williams, Rob Richards and Reuben Domopoy. Marsh Limited arranges the insurance itself but is not the insurer, and the Wellington office is part of the wider Marsh McLennan group, which also includes Guy Carpenter, Mercer and Oliver Wyman.
For a Wellington business owner, insurance can feel like one more complicated thing competing for attention alongside actually running the business. Marsh Wellington positions itself as the broker that takes that complexity off a client's plate — a local office, at Level 2, 20 Customhouse Quay, staffed by brokers who aim to understand not just the policy paperwork but the specific language and pressures of a client's own industry.
The Wellington team's stated focus is on supporting small and medium-sized businesses across the central New Zealand region. Rather than positioning itself as a generalist shop, the office highlights specialists across a range of industries, including real estate, manufacturing and property — sectors where the risks, and the language used to describe them, can be genuinely different from one business to the next. The pitch is straightforward: work with a broker who already understands your industry, rather than starting the conversation from scratch every time.
Through the Wellington office, Marsh can arrange a broad spread of business insurance products. On the property side, there's commercial property insurance, designed to help protect a business's physical assets against the unexpected. For manufacturers, Marsh arranges comprehensive risk solutions aimed at keeping production running smoothly despite the sector's particular exposures.
Businesses that depend on the road get their own attention too, with both transport insurance — covering freight, rail, road or air — and dedicated truck insurance for operations where trucks are central to the business. Real estate agents can arrange risk management cover through Marsh so they can keep servicing clients with peace of mind, while hospitality operators can turn to Marsh's hotel insurance to help protect both reputation and bottom line if a claim arises.
Beyond sector-specific products, the office also arranges general business insurance tailored to a client's particular industry, professional indemnity cover for businesses that give advice as part of their work, and insurance premium funding — a way to spread the cost of a lump-sum premium into monthly instalments rather than paying it all at once.
The office is staffed by a team of insurance brokers: Mark Keating, who specialises in healthcare; and Kerry Gosper, Rebecca Fieldhouse, Jordan Tuite, Veni Williams, Rob Richards and Reuben Domopoy, who round out the broker team. It's a team structure that reflects the office's broader approach — individual brokers building familiarity with specific sectors, rather than a single generalist handling every type of client.
Marsh Limited itself arranges insurance on behalf of clients rather than acting as the insurer, and the Wellington office sits within the much larger Marsh McLennan group. Marsh McLennan describes itself as a leader in risk, strategy and people, operating through four global businesses: Marsh, Guy Carpenter, Mercer and Oliver Wyman. For a Wellington client, that combination means a locally based broker backed by the resources of an international risk and insurance group.
Marsh Wellington's office hours are 8.30am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday, and the team can be reached on 0800 376 304. For anyone who'd rather not call first, the website also offers a "Request a call back" option, and a dedicated Certificate of Currency page is available for clients who need to provide proof of their cover.
