Sharon Stanley
Managing Director
gpm
We spent years working with brokers, so we saw what worked, what didn’t and what drove people mad. inFOCUS is the platform we wished had already existed.
For more than 30 years, we've worked alongside London Market brokers, building long-lasting relationships and developing solutions. We have a genuine understanding of how brokers work and believe successful software is built around what they need, not just technology.
​
At gpm, relationships matter the most. We take the time to understand your business, your challenges and your goals, working collaboratively with you to deliver a solution that fits around the way you work.
We're passionate about making positive change for London Market broking – creating centrally managed systems and workflow automation, and providing access to quality data. By reducing everyday admin, we give brokers more time to focus on broking.
