Life at Lockton Article Header_Jacob Bedi

My career, my story: Jacob Bedi
When I first walked through the doors of Lockton in 2013, I was filled with a mix of excitement and nerves. My journey with Lockton began a year earlier when I participated in a summer program. Alongside a vast cohort of other university students and graduates, I got a taste of what it was like to work at Lockton. After returning to university for my final year, I knew I wanted to return to Lockton full-time. I reached out to HR, and luckily, there was an opening in Major Accounts. Despite my nerves during the interview, I was thrilled when they decided to hire both myself and another candidate (even though there was technically only one position available). Fast forward 11 years, and the business in London has grown significantly. The Major Accounts team has transformed into a global Retail proposition and over the past five to six years, we've merged teams and tripled in size. When I joined, our London team was a a $3 million business. We’ve since grown to a $25+ million business with over 85 Associates. Despite our rapid growth, we still maintain a startup-like atmosphere full of support and appreciation for our clients and each other. We're a $25 million business within a $3 billion global company - growing quickly but with strong support from those around us. The stability at Lockton, with long-standing leaders and minimal reorganisation, has provided a solid foundation for my growth. I've had great managers who have mentored me throughout my journey. Their buy-in has been vital, as they truly care about the growth and careers of our early joiners, our clients, and our Associates. The empowerment of Associates is something Lockton actively encourage and it underpins the entrepreneurial culture of the business. When I first joined, I immediately loved working with our clients. Even today, my favourite part of my role remains solving client’s challenges and their daily interaction is one of the most fulfilling parts of my role. As I've taken on more responsibilities, maintaining strong client relationships has been fundamental and our client-centric approach is a core value at Lockton. Additionally, one of my key focuses continues to be fostering a culture of growth. I care deeply about our younger broker Associates, ensuring they have even more opportunities than I did. It's important to me to guide them and show them the potential of their careers. Our culture is what makes us different and it’s critical that we work hard to maintain our culture and hire the best talent that buy into this. The Partner model at Lockton is a core pillar of our culture. The Partnership not only creates a forum for collaboration and growth but also creates collective cohort of people ready to support each other. Part of the rationale for becoming a Partner was that I wanted to be a role model – to show that you can start as a graduate and become a leader in this business. The recognition and value I feel across the business, along with the close connections I've built with other Partners, makes Lockton a special place to work. We all have a collective investment in the business with the right motivations and goals for moving the business forward, and the calibre of our people, their dedication to clients, and their technical strength are key to our success. When I look back, patience has been key in my career. I've had opportunities to join other brokers, but like Lockton, I've enjoyed playing the long game. Opportunities will present themselves if you're good and believe in yourself. Ron Lockton once said that we're playing a different game than our competitors – ‘we're playing chess, not checkers’. It's not about the size we become but about being the best at what we do We protect our culture, entrepreneurship spirit, and our culture needs by hiring people who align with these values. We're not just another big corporation, and our clients recognise and appreciate that. Choosing a culture and ethos you relate to is crucial. Having the patience short-term is worth the long-term gain. If you're looking for a dynamic growing business that truly cares about Associates and clients, not shareholders, Lockton is the place for you. The investments we make in early careers are unmatched. Here, you have a voice and a seat at the table. If you have the drive to excel and buy into something unique, you'll be successful here.

Making a difference: Graham Turville-Inc...
Graham Turville-Ince's commitment to the Cerebral Palsy Alliance (CPA) is more than a passion - it's a mission to create meaningful change. His dedication began at CPA's Randwick Race Day, where he met a 6-year-old girl whose life was transformed by early intervention programs. "Her progress was remarkable, and seeing her parents' strength, especially with a second child also affected by cerebral palsy, left a lasting impression," Graham shared.  This experience fueled his ongoing involvement. From volunteering at CPA's headquarters in Sydney to raising over $6,000 through the STEPtember challenge, where he took over one million steps to support the cause, Graham continues to raise funds and awareness for CPA. He also works to inspire others, whether colleagues or clients, to join in advocating for CPA's mission.  Graham's efforts were recently recognised with Lockton's prestigious Community Impact Award. Funded by the Lockton family, this honour celebrates Associates making a difference in their communities through volunteering and philanthropy. The award includes a USD 25,000 donation for the recipient's charity of choice, which Graham directed to CPA. "Presenting that cheque, knowing the impact it will make, was an unforgettable moment," he said. "I felt genuinely humbled. It's incredible to be recognised alongside many passionate and impactful colleagues."  The donation will go to providing vital therapy, respite services and a number of other programs for people living with cerebral palsy and their families. Lockton's caring culture played a critical role in Graham's ability to support CPA, allowing him to lead by example at work and in the community. "Lockton doesn't just support my passion- it enables it," he reflected. "From hands-on charity days to backing vetted causes, the encouragement from my team is invaluable."  Looking ahead, Graham is determined to expand his advocacy efforts for CPA. He's working on transitioning fundraising events from his previous involvement with Oxfam to CPA and aims to inspire his professional network to support this vital cause. "Collaboration is key, whether it's colleagues, clients, or other organisations," he said.  Graham remains focused on expanding CPA's impact, inspiring action within his networks, and driving lasting change. "When we work together, the possibilities for transformation are endless," he shared.

Life at Lockton Article Header_Kate Coppinger

My career, my story: Kate Coppinger
From intern to consultant, Kate Coppinger's career at Lockton reflects the power of curiosity, hard work, and mentorship. She began her journey as a Marketing and Operations Intern with the Producer Lifecycle team in Kansas City during the summer of 2022. She found a pivotal mentor in Julie Gibson, now Lockton's Chief Marketing Officer, who guided her through her early career decisions. Her journey led her to Chicago, where she explored client-facing roles and now thrives as an Operations Consultant with the Midwest Growth and Operations team. "Lockton's commitment to developing Associates and empowering their success is unmatched," Kate shared. "At Lockton, you can truly carve out your career path." Learn more about her journey and the lessons she's learned along the way in her own words. --- Can you share your journey from a Marketing Intern to a full-time Associate at Lockton?  Once I realized that I wanted to continue my career full-time at Lockton, I began having conversations with various Associates and leaders in the Kansas City and Chicago offices. I wanted to learn more about each of the different early career opportunities in People Solutions and Risk Solutions and evaluate what would best fit me. I also wanted to investigate if the same Lockton culture in Kansas City was present in Chicago. I decided to travel to the Chicago office to see if it was the right fit for me and meet with a few Associates. There, I met the president of the office and a former People Solutions intern turned Account Executive. By the end of the day, I could see myself thriving in Chicago with Lockton. All my conversations with Lockton Associates were paramount to my decision to continue at Lockton. They were a testament to Lockton's commitment to the development of Associates and the opportunity for personal and professional growth.   What lessons have you learned as you've transitioned through different roles at Lockton?  Lockton is a dynamic organization open to cross-functional promotions and transitions. I am a direct example of this, and I have seen many others go on their own journey here. I have learned the importance of openly sharing my interests and passions with my managers. I would not be in my role now if I didn't speak up. At Lockton, you can create your own career path that supports your passions – you are not stuck in one specialty or department forever.” Hard work pays off. Lockton appreciates drive and work ethic. Associates are recognized and rewarded accordingly. Lockton values those who are involved not only in the market and within our organization but also in our communities.   Lastly, and arguably most importantly, I have learned to be a student of business. Staying curious, asking questions, and understanding the 'why?' have all helped me progress in my career. Being a student of business is to be a lifelong learner.   What sets Lockton apart from other organizations?  Lockton is a flat organization. There are no barriers to accessing leadership or managers. In fact, leadership is more than willing to connect individually with Associates to understand how they can improve their lives and responsibilities. At Lockton, Associates truly are our most valuable asset.  What has been your "Lockton Moment" — a time when you knew Lockton was the right place for you?  I knew Lockton was right for me during my time as an intern. I felt welcomed by Associates and even global leaders who were invested in my success. Every person I met cheered me on and dedicated themselves to helping me learn. I felt energized to make an impact, lead my peers, and grow professionally and technically as much as possible. My "Lockton Moment" came over time as I experienced firsthand the caring culture and genuine investment in my success. An example of this is when the global leadership team made time to attend our intern presentation in person. I was provided impactful feedback, along with encouragement and advice for my future career. This made a lasting impact on me because I felt appreciated and that my contributions mattered. I left my summer internship knowing if I pursued a full-time career with Lockton, I would be valued, supported, and empowered.   How would you describe Lockton's culture to someone unfamiliar with it?  Lockton's caring culture makes showing up to work every day so easy. On day one, I met and fostered lifelong friendships, not just coworkers. Our leaders genuinely care about the well-being and advancement of Associates. By being a privately held organization, our leaders have the flexibility and control to make business decisions that best support our three stakeholders: our Clients, our Associates, and our Communities. Lockton is an organization that rewards high-quality performance and supports Associates with proper learning and development to be successful.
