At Protector, the path to decisions is shorter, the tasks are broader, relationships are closer and there are opportunities development is endless. We drive a motivating, forward-looking and rewarding work environment with knowledge sharing across age and experience boundaries. At Protector, we believe in equal opportunities and are committed to work actively to reflect the diversity in our society.

Protector offers Property, Liability and Fleet insurance products for large and medium-sized companies and for the Public Sector in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and the UK. Today, we have over 420 employees and offices in Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki, Manchester and London. Protector began providing insurance on 1 January 2004. Since then, the company has demonstrated rapid growth and development, and is today among the medium-sized enterprises on the Oslo Stock Exchange. Our goal is to continue the strong growth. We are the challenger in the insurance market, and we endeavour to maintain this role through our cost management and selective distribution strategy. From the launch of Protector in Norway in 2004, we have subsequently expanded and opened offices in Sweden in 2011, in Denmark in 2012, and in Finland and the United Kingdom in 2015.
