As many firms make workers redundant because of the financial impact caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the insurance broker, with offices in Norwich, East Winch, near King’s Lynn and North Lynn, is bucking the trend.
Career opportunities are available across its offics as the firm gears up for the start of its peak season in spring 2021.

Rob Balls, a manager at Adrian Flux, said: “Thanks to our ability to adapt quickly and safely during the lockdown we have been able to carry on driving the business forward.
“As a result we have enjoyed some record-breaking performances at one of the most challenging and difficult times for businesses, ours included.
“This has enabled our vision for growth to continue.
“To keep up with the demand and get staff ready for when things get even busier in March 2021 we’re looking to recruit and can’t wait to provide more people with the opportunity to join our company.”

The company was founded in 1974 by Adrian Flux himself and has grown from one small office in King’s Lynn.
