The 2025 edition of the McLardy McShane Group Conference finished on a resounding note last week, with over $400,000 raised for the Company’s community partnerships and charitable initiatives.

The final dinner saw staff members, joint venture partners, authorised representatives, insurers and underwriters all come together to donate over $200,000 towards causes that are close to the heart of McLardy McShane.

McLardy McShane then committed to matching the contribution volunteered by all attendees, taking the final total of funds to over $400,000.

Throughout the two-day event, the tragic passings of two McLardy McShane team members, Oli Cenedese and Craig Matters, were acknowledged, with the families of both Oli and Craig to be two of the major beneficiaries of everyone’s generosity.

The below is the current plan for donation distribution:

Oli Cenedese’s family - $100,000
CureEB and Tilly Wilkes - $100,000
Craig Matters’ family - $50,000
Reach Foundation - $50,000
Love Your Sister Foundation - $25,000
Soar Foundation Ireland - $15,000
Women for Women in Africa - $15,000
Danny Frawley Centre (Chelsea Frawley) - $10,000
Black Dog Institute - $10,000

The remaining $25,000 will be withheld for future initiatives throughout the next 12 months.

Executive Chairman Don McLardy said:

“The conference theme of ‘Growing with Tradition’ was very fitting. Our company is still growing, and great industry people that are attracted to the McLardy McShane traditions of inclusive and personal culture are joining us all the time.

“We are very proud of the unique organisation what we have built. We are looking forward to new CEOs Meg Long and Nick McLardy and their executive teams continuing to drive the business forward.

“We got a real feel of the power of our combined group at our Conference dinner when our delegates (including all our amazing sponsors) stood up and pledged an incredible $200,000 to support our people and community initiatives that were displayed during the day.

“In all, it was a very memorable experience for everyone involved.”

McLardy McShane Group has unveiled a new-look executive structure at its Annual Group Conference in the Blue Mountains on Thursday.

Following extremely strong growth – which has seen more than 45 Authorised Representatives and seven Joint Venture Branches join the network over the past 12 months alone – McLardy McShane Group has announced new leaders for its two main entities.

McLardy McShane Partners (MMP) operates as the license-holding company, under which the Group’s 150-plus-strong AR Network operates across Australia.

Having played a key role in driving the Company’s evolution over the past decade, Meg Long will step into the MMP Chief Executive Officer role.

McLardy McShane Insurance Advisors (MMIA) is the nationwide insurance brokerage which consists of the Company’s 32 joint venture partnerships.

With over 10 years’ experience in senior roles within the Group, Nick McLardy will take over as the MMIA Chief Executive Officer.

Co-founders Don McLardy and Mike McShane will move into Executive Chairman and Executive Director roles respectively, as the Company continues to set the foundations for future expansion.

In making the announcement, outgoing CEO Don McLardy said:

“These two young professional leaders have helped us build a great company which is poised to have an even bigger industry presence in future years.

“It is only logical that they be given the chance to lead and build the next generation, and they have appointed quality executive teams around them to assist.

“The great culture and values that make the McLardy McShane Group so different will be preserved, and I am very excited to see what the next few years brings."
