Dan Tully, General Manager, Consumer Partners Allianz Australia.
I’m proud to announce that 2024 was an award-winning year for Allianz. This was driven by our strong focus on innovation, enhancing customer experiences, and the launch of platforms like 'One Click'. In 2025, we’ll continue to align our strategy with our partners' priorities as we strive to create a "future ready" support model.
By building on the success Allianz achieved for our partners and customers in 2024, I’m confident we’re well positioned for a strong performance in 2025.
Allianz won three Canstar Awards in 2024
In November 2024, we celebrated winning the 2024 Canstar Outstanding Value Awards for Home Insurance and Home and Contents Insurance products. This added to our 2024 Canstar Innovation Excellence Award for our Home Insurance ‘One Click’ Price Estimate system.
Our 'One Click' Price Estimate system offers customers real-time insurance estimates. This could be at the point of applying for a home loan or purchasing a motor vehicle. It’s one way we’ve simplified the insurance process for our partners and customers.
‘One Click’ has also helped Allianz make it on to the Insurance Business (IB) Australia Insurance Innovator list.
Connecting our partners with our new team
We've heard your feedback and we’re working to uplift our capabilities. This includes focussing on areas like Data and Digital, which are crucial to both Allianz and our partners. For 2025, we’re introducing our Sales Office and state-based operating model.
With this in mind, I’m pleased to announce the following new appointments into the Allianz Consumer Partners team, all reporting to me.
Christie Paton has been appointed the role of Head of Partnerships NSW. Christie has served the last five years as the Head of Brokered & Subsidised Partnerships within the Health Insurance industry. Here, she led high-performing teams – driving year on year growth in the direct and brokered sales channels. In this role, she was responsible for managing broker and client relationships, new business, tenders, innovative customer growth strategies. She also oversaw ongoing significant operational transformation, while positioning the insurer as the leading heath and care partner.
Justin Richards is our new Head of Partnerships VIC. Justin brings a wealth of experience with more than 20 years spent in the financial services, insurance, and automotive industries working with dealerships and OEMs. Justin’s diverse expertise across our key verticals will be an invaluable asset as we continue to innovate and progress our projects.

Here, she was known as a customer-driven, people-focused leader, driving strong commercial results.
I look forward to connecting you with the new team once they’ve settled into their roles.
Further recognition for Allianz
Our continued focus on the customer brought further rewards. In addition to the Canstar Awards, we’ve received recognition from ANZIIF. Allianz has now been named the Large General Insurance Company of the Year.
The Allianz Group was again named the world's top insurer in the Interbrand Best Global Brand Rankings for the sixth year running. We’re now ranked in the top 30 global brands with 13% growth. This affirms the strength of the Allianz brand and the trust bestowed upon us by our partners and customers.
We are investing heavily in the evolution of our business and have commenced a major 2-year program. This will focus on transforming and growing our data/digital, marketing and reporting solutions. I look forward to sending you more updates as the program comes to life.
