Our History

H J Pook Insurance Brokers was established in 1958 by John Pook. Originally concentrating on serving local clients, the business now has clients nationwide serviced by a staff of sixteen.

The current partners are Malcolm Pook, Maggie Cooke and Kevin Grimwood. 

We still operate from our original address in the village of Great Totham near Maldon in rural Essex although the original office building has completely altered over the years to accommodate the growing number of staff.
