About Gallagher

Gallagher was founded by Arthur J Gallagher in a basement office in Chicago in 1927. The Global Chairman, CEO and President, J Patrick Gallagher – Arthur's grandson – started as an intern in 1972 and has worked to carry on his family legacy. Gallagher has remained true to its origins and places a strong emphasis on maintaining a family feel, making it a unique culture for a global organisation.

The Australian branch network includes 35 branches, and it partners with more than 100,000 Australian businesses, from small businesses through to multinational corporations and iconic brands.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Gallagher likes to give back to the community. They recognise the importance of the communities in which they operate in and have select partnerships to help focus their efforts and these are based on:

Inclusion & Diversity – building an inclusive culture that values diversity
Community - engaging business and community with purpose
Environment & Sustainability – promoting environmental sustainability

One of Gallagher Australia's proud community partnerships is with JDRF and they also work with The Smith Family.

Volunteering is a big part of CSR and employees are provided with paid leave to volunteer with a charity of choice. These connections, engagement and giving back to the community forms part of the ‘Your Cause’ global campaign at Gallagher.

The people

The people are the key difference at Gallagher. They believe in an environment that values and leverages diverse talents, perspectives and ideas so that everyone can reach their full potential. They offer a culture of respect and trust that is an essential part of The Gallagher Way - the Global organisation's shared values and behaviours.
