Customer Care Awards 2024: shortlist announced

The shortlist for the COVER Customer Care Awards 2024 has been announced, with winners to be awarded on 27 June, 2024 at Marriott Grosvenor Square, London.

The awards aim to recognise the unsung heroes in the protection space, from underwriting teams and marketing, to third-party added value and intermediary support.

Cameron Roberts, editor, COVER, said: "The protection industry has a wealth of providers that support the industry, these awards aim to recognise the work going on in the background to make products and services that truly raise the bar.

"I am very excited to award the winners in June, but every business in the shortlist demonstrated ways in which they have innovated in the sector."
