Founded in 2010, Irecon has evolved into a specialist risk advisory firm that cuts through insurance complexity for businesses across Australia. While we've built particular expertise in construction and related industries, our approach works across sectors – from manufacturing to professional services.
What sets us apart isn't just our principals' 40+ years of insurance experience; it's how we apply that knowledge to your specific business challenges.
We don't operate like typical brokers who push products. Instead, we investigate your business operations in detail, analysing exposures others might miss. This thorough approach, combined with our strong insurer relationships, means we secure coverage that genuinely protects your business interests – not just meets minimum requirements.
For clients who value partnership over transactions, Irecon delivers insurance solutions that support your business objectives rather than just ticking compliance boxes.
