‘Ashley is without a shadow of a doubt the best surveyor I have ever worked with. I specifically asked that he be involved with the client – his involvement was one of the reasons I recommended Travelers to the client. Travelers provide excellent risk management support anyway, but Ashley is so knowledgeable, practical, approachable and helpful, he really is in my opinion a real asset to Travelers and to our clients. I can’t think of another surveyor I would be happy to visit a client without me or to talk to them directly, but I trust him 100% to give sound advice. I feel we work in partnership on these accounts for the good of the client and this puts us all in a stronger position for retaining accounts long term.’

Specialist industry solutions
Taking an industry-specific approach to managing risks
Every industry carries its own set of risks and challenges, both now and in the future. Travelers believes in developing a sound understanding of every industry we work with, to ensure that we can guide a pragmatic and realistic approach to engaging in risk management activities with both current issues and those on the horizon.
Whilst there are risk management fundamentals, we recognise the importance of understanding the risks and challenges that are specific to particular industries. We work with our customers to deliver purposeful and well-considered risk management advice.
