Furness Insurance Services

What is Furness Insurance Services?

Furness Insurance Services is an international insurance group operating as a Lloyd's broker, headquartered in London. The company operates through three specialist divisions: IPR International Professional Risks, Furness Underwriting, and CHP Legal, providing comprehensive insurance solutions across professional indemnity, specialty lines, and legal sector insurance.

With offices in London, Milan, Madrid, and Brussels, Furness Insurance Services has a genuinely international footprint, serving clients across Europe and beyond. As a Lloyd's broker, the company has access to the world's leading insurance marketplace, enabling them to place complex and specialist risks with top-tier underwriters.

Where will I work?

Furness Insurance Services is headquartered in London, United Kingdom, with additional offices in Milan, Madrid, and Brussels. The company operates a hybrid working model, giving team members flexibility to split their time between the office and home. The London office provides access to Lloyd's of London and the wider insurance market, while the European offices serve regional clients.

What is the team like?

With approximately 20 employees across four offices, Furness Insurance Services is a small but internationally minded team of insurance professionals, underwriters, and brokers. The team brings deep expertise in professional risks, specialty insurance lines, and legal sector coverage.

Despite being a compact organisation, the multi-office, multi-country structure means team members work across borders and cultures, creating a dynamic and internationally focused working environment. The company values specialist expertise and client relationships.

Work-Life Balance

Furness Insurance Services operates a 4-day working week at 32 hours with full pay. The company holds Gold accreditation from the 4 Day Week Foundation, making it one of the few Lloyd's brokers to adopt a reduced-hours model — demonstrating that even in the traditionally demanding insurance sector, a 4-day week is achievable.
