NFU Mutual Tiverton and South Molton agency merge

Following the recent merger of NFU Mutual Tiverton and NFU Mutual South Molton, we’re thrilled to announce that the agency is continuing to grow and evolve. And as part of that journey, we’re excited to welcome a new face to the team — James Maxwell. James joins us as Group Secretary and Insurance Agent alongside the established partners Pete Randerson and Emily Mills.

Originally from South West Wales, James moved to Devon in 2016 to be closer to family. After starting his career with us on our Future Agent scheme in 2020, he joins the NFU Mutual Tiverton and South Molton agency bringing with him his experience as a commercial insurance agent from his previous role.

“I’m thrilled to join the NFU Mutual Tiverton & South Molton Agency. It’s a fantastic opportunity to become part of a growing, forward-thinking business with a well-established leadership team,” said James. “The chance to collaborate with two experienced partners of similar age really allows us to collectively plan for the future.”

Pete Randerson shared his excitement about the expanding team, commenting, "We’re delighted to welcome James to the team. His wealth of experience in commercial insurance, combined with the fresh perspective he brings, will be a tremendous asset as we continue to grow and evolve."

Emily Mills continued; "James’s passion for delivering outstanding service aligns perfectly with our commitment to supporting local businesses and communities. We’re excited to see how his expertise will help us further enhance the service we offer to our clients."

As we continue to grow, the South Molton office will remain a key part of our operations and will continue to play a central role in serving our valued members and clients. The office, along with the dedicated staff, will remain unchanged, ensuring continuity and maintaining the high standard of personal service that NFU Mutual is known for. Retaining the local knowledge and expertise of the South Molton team reinforces our commitment to the community, while providing clients with the confidence that their needs will be met by the same familiar faces.

As part of our transition, we’re also happy to share that Stuart Holton, former South Molton Agent, will be staying with us in a consultative role for the next six months. Stuart has been with NFU Mutual for an incredible 37 years, and while he’s preparing for retirement next year, he’s taking this time to personally thank members and clients for their loyalty and support.

We’re so grateful for all of Stuart’s contributions over the years, and we know our clients will appreciate having him around as we go through this exciting phase.

So, what’s next for NFU Mutual Tiverton & South Molton? With James on board, we’ll continue offering the same comprehensive range of insurance products and services, all backed by the strength and stability of NFU Mutual. Our goal remains the same: to provide local expertise, delivered by people who genuinely care about our community.

Thanks to everyone for your continued support — we look forward to growing with you!
