Since Oval was established in 2003, it has taken on 34 companies and the group now has over 1,200 employees across the UK.

The latest acquisition increases Oval’s presence both in the capital and nationally. O’Neill and Bramwell specialises in providing insurance broking services to the advertising, production and event industries. The company has been established for over ten years, with a strong focus on mid-corporate and corporate clients.

Oval says that all staff will retain their jobs and directors Susana Bramwell and Tony O’Neill will head up the team, reporting into London and South managing director, Peter Young.
