Rob McLeod

Senior Vice President, Professional & Financial Services

I’m Rob McLeod, Senior Vice President, Professional and Financial Services at Axis Insurance. I bring over 15 years of insurance experience and lead a national team that specializes in professional and financial services. We help regulated professionals, directors, and officers manage risk and insurance. Our industry sectors include architects, engineers, education, finance, law firms, healthcare, and real estate. Our clients provide services across Canada and around the world.

We take a business approach to risk management, with the goal of transforming risks into opportunities for growth. The main insurance coverages my team manages include professional (errors and omissions) liability, directors’ and officers’, crime, and cyber. We work with numerous industry leaders, associations, and high-profile clients, and have helped clients manage a countless number of newsworthy claims and crisis management events.

Our team stays current with industry trends through the knowledge we continuously develop from claims, clients, industry partners, and professional networks. Leading a team of over 35 people across Canada allows me to provide clients with the appropriate level of staff and resources. We regularly provide clients and associations with custom educational risk management workshops.

Serving on the ACEC-BC Business Practice Committee and the Professional Liability Agents Network board of directors, I bring a wealth of industry-specific insights and connections to my role at Axis. In 2024, I was nominated for the PAL Insurance Brokers Award for Young Achiever of the Year in Canada and became President of the Professional Liability Agents Network (PLAN) in North America. I am a Chartered Insurance Professional and Canadian Accredited Insurance Broker.
