Brown & Brown Health and Employee Benefits has been named Employee Benefits Intermediary of the Year at the 2026 COVER Excellence Awards.
Now in its 20th year, the awards aim to celebrate the best and brightest in protection and health. For 2026, judges highlighted those that have raised the bar; be it an insurer with a new proposition, an adviser working to expand the market, and anyone in between.

Employee Benefits Intermediary of the Year
In this competitive category, judges sought an intermediary who had developed and enhanced their proposition in response to changing employee needs. They also looked for clear evidence of growth in terms of new client wins, sought firms who had improved standards with training and expansion of consultant knowledge, and reviewed testimonials from clients and industry peers before deciding a winner.
Speaking on the win, BBHEB Managing Director Tom Danson said:
We’re absolutely delighted to be recognised as Employee Benefits Intermediary of the Year. This award is a fantastic reflection of the expertise, commitment, and passion of our teammates across Brown & Brown Health and Employee Benefits.
We’re focused on being a genuine strategic partner to our customers, helping them navigate an increasingly complex employee benefits landscape and deliver meaningful outcomes for their people. I’m incredibly proud of what the team has achieved.
