TV personality Paul Burt, star of his own popular show on 7 Mate ‘Step Outside with Paul Burt’ and weather presenter for 7News in Queensland, has teamed up with leading trans-Tasman insurance agency NM Insurance in an ambassadorial role.
Commencing in February 2024, Paul’s appointment as NM Insurance Ambassador, will see the TV presenter share his passion for the outdoors through media interviews, social and digital content and through the Nautilus Marine Magazine.
Operating in Australia and New Zealand, NM Insurance encompasses a stable of specialist insurance brands focused on marine, motorcycling, caravanning, and cargo. NM Insurance brands include Nautilus Marine Insurance, National Motorcycle Insurance, Australian Caravan Insurance, and Proteus Marine Insurance. Paul Burt’s ambassadorial role aligns with the three main consumer insurance markets NM Insurance operates within: boats, motorcycles, and caravans.
“NM Insurance shares the enthusiasm that our policy holders have for their outdoor passions,” said NM Insurance CEO Lyndon Turner. “Whether they own a boat, motorbike, or caravan (or all three!) for many of our customers their leisure assets are sources of pride and joy which offer them access to outdoor adventures with friends and family. Paul Burt, through his TV appearances and in person, really embodies this enthusiasm for the outdoors. We are absolutely thrilled to have Paul join the NM Insurance family as our first-ever NM Insurance Ambassador and are sure our customers will be as delighted as we are to have Paul join us on the journey.”
“Being on the water and experiencing the outdoors pretty much my whole life, I know the importance first-hand of having the backing of an insurance provider that will be there when called upon and won’t let you down,” said Paul Burt. “My vessels have been covered by NM Insurance for more than a decade now and over that time I have appreciated the expertise and personable nature of the team. The NM Insurance team understand the importance of protecting your pride and joy because they also love experiencing the outdoors. Accidents can and do happen, and unfortunately you can also get caught up in the fury Mother Nature often unleashes around the country. For me, it’s a comforting feeling knowing I have NM Insurance by my side when I’m stepping outside, and I’m proud to now also be working with the team as their Ambassador.”
Paul’s enthusiasm for the outdoors began on family holidays when he was young. In 1993 this was translated into print when he began writing a weekly column for the Gold Coast Bulletin about fishing. Soon after he was on television where he has gained a substantial following due to his knowledge and interactive style.
Now into its sixth season, ‘Step Outside with Paul Burt’ screens on 7 Mate around Australia and is popular for being both educational and entertaining. From fishing to handy tips and cooking, the show brings to the audience a wealth of information on all things outdoors.
