Raising the roof
for insurance marketing talent
IMG Awards 2023
We went up a level in 2023. Literally. The awards ceremony took us right up to the upper floors of the Lloyd’s building. And, once again, the talent and work coming out of the industry was flying just as high. In fact, the levels were so good, the judges introduced an extra honour within The Marketing Team of the Year category – our “One to Watch” award.
The Young Marketer of the Year
Winner
Jasmine Handleigh
Content Advisor, QBE Insurance
“Winning the Young Marketer of the Year Award was such an honour and a surprise. It’s the first award I have ever won, and it has really boosted my confidence in my abilities. It’s not often that young professionals, especially in marketing and creative fields, get recognised for their contributions, so a big thank you to the IMG for creating this platform. I have just started the Digital Minds programme and am thoroughly enjoying it so far. It is challenging me to step outside my comfort zone, and I believe it will really help me advance my career. I’d strongly encourage all insurance marketing teams to nominate their young talent for the award.”

“The IMG Marketing Team of the Year award is a testimony to the power of marketing within insurance, recognising its role as a growth engine for businesses and brands.
For Loadsure’s nascent marketing team to win the 2023 award – against stiff competition from larger, established brands – is an enormous validation of the team’s hard work.
The EDII “6 in 6” course that came with the prize has given the team new problem solving tools within the “design thinking” framework, which will be integral for our ongoing project work.”
