Employee benefits specialist Mattioli Woods has joined GRiD, the industry body for group risk, as its latest member.
The company employs more than 1,000 people across the UK and started out as a pensions consultancy before expanding into wealth management and employee benefits, including group risk.
Barry Waring (pictured), chair of raising the profile at GRiD, said: “As a collective body, we are able to consider all legislative and regulatory issues that can or do affect group risk business.
“We raise the profile of group risk and provide a forum for discussion on all public policy matters that relate to workplace health and wellbeing.
“We are delighted that Mattioli Woods is now a member of this influential assembly and look forward to the perspective they will be able to bring from an employee benefits and engagement point of view.”
Saira Chambers, employee benefits director at Mattioli Woods, said: “As our presence in the group risk market continues to grow, we recognise the value of joining GRiD to help promote the importance of protection benefits for employees.
“Our highly experienced team is excited about the opportunity to share ideas, champion these benefits, and support GRiD in its work to lobby the Government and influence legislation.”
