Soon after a successful start in accounting, Nicol Insurance Chief Financial Officer Adam Barfoot made the decision that he wanted something more. With the designation CPA, CA, he was at the time working for a public accounting firm. In 2012, after a conversation with childhood friend Tim Nichol, he decided to make the jump and began his career as an insurance broker. Attaining his CAIB, he now acts as the principle broker for Nicol Insurance and with Tim Nicol is equal partner.
His knowledge of the insurance business has being learned at many levels, experiencing first-hand the diverse and complex insurance world. Not only did he grow up with insurance talk at the family table, but he was also educated on insurance in London, Ontario. Prior to joining Nicol full-time, Tim worked at both large and small insurance companies, it was there he found a meaningful difference, particularly in the way companies treat their clients and team members.
