Ausure Insurance Services has launched a new venture in Mildura to service northwest Victoria. 

Jason Palazzo, who initiated the move, will be Ausure Insurance Services Sunraysia Principal Broker. 

Mr Palazzo grew up in Mildura and says he will draw on business relationships developed over 20 years working in the community. He spent 12 years at Nutrien Ag Solutions in the regional city, finishing as insurance account manager. 

“I could see a major opportunity ... I needed a network that ... was able to let a personal brand grow within it,” he said. “I approached Ausure Insurance Services MD Josh Legudi and the outcome was a shared vision.” 

Family-run Ausure Insurance Services, originally Rutherford Street Insurance Services, was founded in 1998 and joined Ausure in 2013. It has operations in Swan Hill, Port Melbourne, Euroa, Deniliquin, Seymour and now Mildura. 

“We look forward to what Jason has to offer to the community of Mildura,” Mr Legudi said. 

“Jason has a lot of local knowledge and extensive experience in the insurance industry. We are thrilled to be opening Ausure Insurance Sunraysia with someone who holds the same values, service and care for their clients. Jason ticks all the boxes for us.”
