DUAL UK strengthens its North West regional presence

Regional appointments in key distribution roles drive the business’ ambitious growth plans in the North West

As part of its focus on engaging with key trading partners through building regional teams, DUAL UK today announces the appointment of two new business development managers.

Daniel (Danny) Lowis joined DUAL in January and has over twenty years of experience leading wholesale distribution and business development teams, most recently at Granite Underwriting Ltd. He has experience across a number of channels including Insurer and niche MGAs, as well as an understanding of the broking environment.

Rachel Whitty joins from RSA where she has spent the past 10 year as a regional sales manager and broker account manager. Prior to that, Whitty worked in business development roles for Ecclesiastical Insurance, having started her career as a broker at Swinton Insurance.

Moira Spencer, Regional Manager, North West, DUAL UK said: “I am delighted Danny and Rachel have joined DUAL.

“We’ve been building out our North West presence throughout 2025 and having Danny and Rachel on board will allow us to strengthen our relationships with key trading partners in the region. We want to grasp the exciting opportunities that exist outside London and we’ve had an overwhelmingly positive response to our plans from brokers to date.

“It’s important that we build teams that are local to our clients so that we can gain a deeper understanding of their needs and use this knowledge to respond to emerging challenges as we build out our specialisms.

“Both Danny and Rachel have huge amounts of experience and energy and will make valuable contributions to our team as we develop our ambitious regional expansion.”
