Rob Anderson

Business Development Manager

What is your role?

As a Business Development Manager within Annuities and Equity Release, my role is to help advisers make the most of the Aviva proposition and navigate the market, ensuring the best outcomes for their clients. I can also assist in helping brokers grow their business.

How long have you worked for Aviva/been in the industry?

I joined the team in January 2025, so i'm the baby of the team! I’ve been in financial services for just over a year and a half, having worked for Aviva many years ago within our Platform team helping brokers with our savings and investments product range. I’m also a service leaver, having left the British Army in January 202

Describe a typical day/week in your role

Plenty of calls and plenty of meetings. With a large list of accounts, there is always something coming through and always a conversation to be had. From proposition webinars in which we’ll discuss current and up-and-coming cases, along with the Aviva offer to talks with pricing, trying to source the best products for our clients.

What is the thing you’re most proud of that has benefited advisers?

I pride myself on a strong work ethic accompanied by a no-frills common-sense approach. I’d like to think that when my accounts come to me, I can provide quick turn-around times, honest conversations, and committed actions, which always carry the client’s best interests at heart. This is a people business at the end of the day.
