Awards ‘next level’ for RIB

RIB's Keith Roderick.

Leading brokerage firm Roderick Insurance Brokers (RIB) has again thrown its support behind the region’s premier business awards.

Signing on as a sponsor of the Geelong Business Excellence Awards for the fourth year, RIB hopes it inspires other local businesses to do the same.

The awards have helped RIB elevate its brand to the “next level”, says managing director and owner Keith Roderick.

“We’re big supporters of the awards because we hope other business in the region get the recognition they deserve,” he says.

RIB joined the awards’ Hall of Fame in 2015 after category wins in 2012, 2013 and 2014.

Keith says RIB’s first Geelong Business Excellence award was a turning point.

“It was a very exciting moment because it was the first major award we’d received.”

The locally-owned, family-run business has more than three decades of experience in the industry.

Operating in Geelong and Werribee, RIB employs 40 staff as one of the largest regional brokerages in Australia.

RIB provides highly personalised insurance advice to ensure clients make the right insurance decisions, Keith says.

“Our expert staff provide guidance on all aspects of commercial and personal insurance products.

“We’re really humbled by the fact that so many people in Geelong choose to insure with us.”
