About Apollo
Apollo was launched in 2009 to provide clients and brokers with an agile and entrepreneurial insurance partner. The Apollo name recognised the success of one of its founding investors, Neil Armstrong, who in 1969 was the first person to walk on the moon.
We are an innovative, integrated insurance group offering insurance products across property, casualty, marine, energy and transportation, specialty, reinsurance, and Smart Follow teams via Syndicate 1969. Through Syndicate 1971, ibott, we offer digital and embedded risk programmes, whilst our Strategic Partner Syndicates business supports new Lloyd’s entrants from initial concept to full managing agency services.
What makes us different? Our wide range of products put us in a unique position where our entrepreneurial approach and service excellence delivers creative and flexible solutions for our clients and partners all in one place as we continue our exciting growth journey. Apollo is a great place to work with an inclusive culture where everyone is welcome, included, and can thrive. Our workplace is collaborative, supportive and innovative, and we strive to produce the best results possible, together. Opportunities exist to develop our employees’ key strengths and we are supported in ways that matter to each individual. In addition to generous employee benefits, flexible working is fully embraced and utilised. We understand that no one colleague is the same and that each of us has our own responsibilities and roles outside of our working life.
“We attract and retain the highest quality talent by developing a team atmosphere where opportunity exists for our employees and partners.” David Ibeson, Group CEO
