An award-winning group. A New Zealand team that answers the phone.
Shielded is a multi-award-winning insurance and finance group headquartered on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland — named an Insurance Business Top Brokerage five years running in Australia. We’re bringing the same fast, easy and personal broking to New Zealand, with claims support 24/7.
Our New Zealand brokerage operates under the Community Broker Network NZ licence.
Five things that never change
We're a young, energetic team — but some things about how we work aren't up for negotiation.
- Equality
- The same straight answers and the same care, whether you're insuring one ute or a whole fleet.
- Energy
- We chase the insurers, not the other way round, and come back to you quickly.
- Professionalism
- Qualified brokers, careful advice, and cover explained in plain English.
- Trust
- We work for you, not the insurer — and you'll always know how we're paid.
- Accessibility
- A real person on the phone, and claims you can lodge any hour of any day.
