Aston Lark, the Howden subsidiary, has furthered its regional expansion by establishing a new office in Reading. It aims to provide in-person support and build on earlier office openings in Norwich and South Wales.
The newly unveiled Aston Lark office, located in Winnersh Triangle, boasts a modern and futuristic glass design. Initially, a team of four, led by Alistair Matthews, will operate from the office, with plans to welcome more insurance professionals from the area in the coming months and years.
“It’s not only an important touch point for our current and future clients in the area, but further emphasises the breadth of opportunity here at Aston Lark and Howden,” said Alistair Matthews, regional director – Thames Valley, Farnborough and Alton.
According to Warren Dickson, CEO, Aston Lark UK, the expansion is the latest benefit from the Howden takeover.
“One of the benefits of Aston Lark becoming part of Howden is the extent to which it’s enabled us to realise our growth ambitions, not only through acquisition, but also opening new offices in key regions across the UK,” he said.
“We’re really excited about the opportunities it brings for current employees, and new talent, to take their career where they want it to go.”
