Looking for a business insurance broker in Newcastle?

You’ve found a team that locals can trust.

Finding the right insurance broker means choosing a team that understands Newcastle’s business landscape, industries, and risks. We don’t believe in generic, one-size-fits-all policies.

  • We compare policies across leading insurers to secure the best value.
  • We advocate for you during claims to ensure fast, fair resolutions.
  • We simplify the insurance process, saving you time and frustration.
  • We provide expert, no-obligation insurance advice so you can make informed decisions.

A Newcastle Insurance Broker Ready to Assist.

Navigating business insurance alone can lead to gaps in coverage, unexpected costs, and difficulties in claims processing. Our role as your Newcastle business insurance broker is to provide:

  • A dedicated advisor who understands your industry and risk profile.
  • Time-saving solutions, so you’re not wasting hours comparing policies.
  • Balanced risk management—ensuring your cover is both cost-effective and comprehensive.

Small / Growing Business!

Whether you're in the early stages of launching your business or still planning your operations, we provide tailored insurance solutions to match your needs.

Enterprise Level Organization

Managing risk for large-scale businesses requires comprehensive, industry-specific insurance. Our expert brokers provide tailored coverage for corporate entities, multi-location businesses, and high-revenue enterprises, ensuring your assets, operations, and employees are safeguarded against financial risks.

We do things differently to other insurance brokers in Newcastle.

The insurance industry has a reputation for slow response times, expensive policies, and unclear exclusions that only become apparent when making a claim. That’s where we’re different. We take a proactive, transparent approach to ensure you know exactly what your coverage includes—and just as importantly, what it doesn’t.

We understand the Newcastle business landscape, where industries like construction, logistics, trade services, and professional consulting require tailored insurance strategies that mitigate risks specific to the region. For example, property insurance for businesses in Newcastle must account for coastal weather risks, and public liability insurance must be structured to cover higher risks for businesses operating in heavy industries or high-foot-traffic environments.

With our local knowledge and national network, we don’t just offer generic coverage—we customise policies to fit Newcastle’s business needs, ensuring you’re not overpaying for unnecessary extras while maintaining the coverage that genuinely matters.

Australia's largest network of insurers

As part of Steadfast, Australia’s largest insurance broking network, we provide Newcastle businesses with access to a global network of insurers, ensuring that you receive exclusive policy wordings, enhanced coverage, and highly competitive premiums. With $10 billion in annual premiums under management, Steadfast's buying power means we can secure policies with better terms, higher limits, and stronger protection against exclusions—advantages that smaller independent brokers simply can’t offer. For Newcastle businesses, this means you get insurance solutions tailored for high-risk industries like construction, mining, manufacturing, and transport, ensuring your business is properly protected against the unique challenges of operating in the Hunter Region. Whether you need public liability, professional indemnity, or workers’ compensation, our extensive insurer network ensures that you receive policies that provide the best balance between cost and comprehensive protection.

Commercial Insurance Solutions for Newcastle Businesses

Operating a business in Newcastle presents unique challenges, from industry-specific risks in construction and professional services to emerging cyber threats. At Priority Insurance Brokers, we provide tailored commercial insurance designed to protect businesses from financial losses, legal liabilities, and operational disruptions. Whether you’re a sole trader, small business owner, or managing a large corporation, we ensure you have the right coverage at competitive rates.

Accidents can happen at any time, and public liability insurance protects your business from claims of injury or property damage caused to third parties. Whether you’re a café owner in Newcastle CBD, a tradesperson working in the Hunter Region, or running an event, this coverage safeguards you from expensive lawsuits, medical costs, and legal fees. With public liability insurance, your business remains protected from unexpected risks that could otherwise lead to significant financial strain.

If your business offers advice, consultancy, or professional services, you need professional indemnity insurance. This policy covers legal fees, compensation claims, and settlements if a client suffers financial loss due to an error, omission, or negligence in your work. Professionals such as accountants, consultants, engineers, and architects in Newcastle rely on this coverage to protect their business reputation and finances.

Your business premises, stock, and equipment are valuable assets, and commercial property insurance protects them from fire, storm damage, theft, and vandalism. Whether you own a retail store in Charlestown, a warehouse in Mayfield, or an office space in the city centre, we tailor policies that address local risks, including flood and severe weather events that Newcastle businesses frequently face.

If you employ staff, workers’ compensation insurance is a legal requirement in Newcastle. This coverage ensures that employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses receive medical care, wage replacement, and rehabilitation support, while also protecting your business from potential lawsuits. Given Newcastle’s strong mining, manufacturing, and construction industries, ensuring compliance with workers’ compensation regulations is essential for business continuity and employee welfare.

With cybercrime on the rise, cyber insurance has become a critical safeguard for businesses across Newcastle. This policy covers data breaches, ransomware attacks, hacking incidents, and financial fraud, ensuring your business can recover quickly from a cyber attack. Whether you store customer data, process online transactions, or manage confidential business information, cyber insurance helps protect your reputation and financial stability.

Every business faces unique risks, and having the right insurance coverage is essential for long-term protection and peace of mind. At Priority Insurance Brokers, we simplify the insurance process by providing tailored policies, expert advice, and competitive pricing.

What policies do we specialise in?

We can assist you with all general insurance products however, some of the main policies that we can help with are:

  • Professional Indemnity Insurance: This is important for businesses that are providing advice in exhange for a fee. This will usually include things like designs, certification or compliance sign off. Professional Indemnity is an integral policy for businesses in these types of industries. 
  • Property Cover For a Business: Business package insurance policies are a convenient way for business owners to cover things like contents, stock and equipment that they carry as part of their business. This policy can be specifically built and tailored to your business.
  • Motor Vehicle Insurance: We can help with any types of vehicles or machines that your business uses. This includes things like plant and equipment insurance, truck insurance and motor vehicle insurance. Regardless of whether you have one vehicle or a fleet of vehicles, we can help you.

How can a local business insurance broker in Newcastle help your business?

The biggest hurdle for most business owners is figuring out whether they are actually covered correctly. The hard part is they don’t usually find out until they need to make a claim on the policy that they have in place. We try and avoid this by firstly understanding your business and what it does. This allows us to identify potential exposures to your business and we can structure our cover and our advice accordingly.

If you’re using a business insurance broker in Canberra then it should be quicker than doing it yourself. What can you expect when working with us?

  • Quick turnaround times with most enquiries handled on the same day
  • A thorough breakdown of what quotes have been received on your behalf 
  • Advice around strategies and tactics that can be implemented to reduce your premium

We can’t always save you money but it is always our first intention. Saving money on a policy is a big win for us as well as you. Our biggest saving in 2023 for one of our clients was $43,000 – thats what gets us really excited. However, we know that there is no point saving big dollars on your policy if your policy then becomes an expensive piece of paper that won’t actually cover you for anything.

If you’ve ever lodged an insurance claim before than you know that sometimes it can be like a mexican stand-off. We know our policies and we know what to expect from our insurers which is why we ensure that the cover and service levels are maintained. If on the unfortunate occassion this doesn’t happen we have multiple escalation points available to us and you to get your claim back to where it should be.

We don’t come in and take over your business. Noone knows your business better than what you do. We act as your wingman in times of need by providing you the advice to make the best decisions for your business.
