WPA Healthcare partners use their expertise to manage their customer portfolios, while growing ethical, successful businesses

Good health is our most precious asset - WPA allows freedom of choice, offering customers the chance to secure health insurance cover for treatment that may otherwise be unaffordable.

WPA healthcare partners (franchisees) work as local representatives throughout the UK, helping individuals and companies to find the right WPA health insurance product to suit their needs.

The role of wpa healthcare partners

WPA’s team of healthcare partners work as consultants, not only selling and promoting the company’s health insurance products, but actively maintaining customer relationships with regular contact to ensure customer satisfaction.

Healthcare partners use their expertise to manage their customer portfolios, while growing ethical, successful businesses.

Why choose a health insurance franchise?

People are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of private medical insurance; this may be due to the increasing demands on the NHS.

Companies are using PMI as an important part of business healthcare and sickness absence strategies, as a strong benefits package not only ensures employers get the pick of employees at the recruitment stage, but can also help to retain them.

Why choose a wpa healthcare practice?

WPA believes in supporting partners on the road to success.

The company’s launch programme helps you and your business make the best possible start. It includes a dedicated mentor, enhanced professional fees in the first two years, marketing fund and a new launch pad fund of up to £15,000, which is released incrementally depending upon results (not available if purchasing an established franchise).

All partners also benefit from initial and ongoing training and support, real-time connectivity to WPA IT systems via a bespoke iPad app and a dedicated head office franchise support team.

Commercial director, Mark Southern, says: ‘We understand that making a decision to purchase a franchise is a big one, so by creating a market leading support package for our new partners we’re trying to minimize this risk in a bid to continue to recruit the highest quality partners.”

Ideal candidate

Healthcare partners come from various backgrounds and different walks of life. However, they’re all passionate about providing exemplary levels of service for customers.

Successful candidates must have the ability to develop a network of customers, have strong interpersonal skills and entrepreneurial spirit. The opportunity is a full-time commitment.
