Our Managing Director

Christian Garling

Christian Garling has worked in the insurance industry for 30 years. He was the founder of Berkley’s insurance operations in Australia. Subsequently, he founded FTA Insurance, a Lloyd’s coverholder. Christian has successfully run insurance operations in the Australian market for 20 years.

As the Founder and Managing Director of FTA, he enjoys bringing value to brokers by providing excellent service, competitive prices and a Fast Turn Around on quotes (regardless of the size of the risk).

“Each year that FTA continues to receive awards confirms that FTA’s broking partners value the products and expert advice they receive from us” Christian says, “and in return, this makes us feel great about the work we are doing.”. Internally at FTA we focus ensuring we have great people who work as a team to support each other and their brokers. Ensuring FTA’s brokers are getting everything they need in a timely manner is always a top consideration in everything FTA does. Well, that and having some fun too!

In his personal life, Christian is married with two kids. Most weekends he can be found actively involved in his kids’ sport or working, either at FTA, or around the house. We can’t stop him….Christian loves being busy!
