James Nicholas

Their role at HKJ Commercial
New Business Executive, Worcester

James has worked in insurance for most of his professional career, beginning with A-Plan in 2012 where he looked after car, home, and van policies. In 2014, he transitioned into commercial insurance, gaining experience across sectors such as manufacturing, hospitality, wholesale, and property portfolios. By mid-2020, James relocated to Worcester from Birmingham where he was introduced to the marine sector by Malcolm Stewart. He now coordinates and supports the New Business team for Haven KJ Commercial, a move he has thoroughly enjoyed thanks to the unique culture and character of the industry.

Away from the office, James admits to being a bit of an adrenaline enthusiast, particularly when it comes to speed. It’s only fitting, then, that he is in the process of completing his RYA Powerboat Level 2, combining his professional world with a personal passion for the water.

James always strives to ensure clients are informed and confident in their cover, recognising that for many, their business is their livelihood.
