Conor Kelly

General Insurance Manager, LawtonAsia Insurance Brokers

Industry : Business

For Conor Kelly, joining the family business means looking forward without losing sight of what earned its reputation. As General Insurance Manager at LawtonAsia Insurance Brokers, he represents the next generation of an independent brokerage founded in Thailand by his father, Jerome Kelly, in 1997. His task is both commercial and custodial: to help shape its next chapter while preserving relationships built over more than 25 years.

LawtonAsia serves individuals, families and businesses across health, life and general insurance, alongside employee benefits and risk management. Its independence allows it to work with a network of insurance partners and tailor solutions to clients’ particular circumstances – an approach grounded in attentiveness rather than a standardised offering.

Kelly has taken an active role in the company’s growth and modernisation. Recent developments include relocating its head office to One City Centre and launching LAPlus, a digital platform through which clients can access policies, claims and documents. In 2026, the brokerage also achieved ISO 27001 certification, reinforcing its approach to information security as more of the client experience moves online.

His role therefore reaches beyond generating new business. It is about ensuring that a long-established company continues to meet changing expectations with clarity, convenience and care. By pairing digital progress with the trust on which LawtonAsia was built, Kelly is helping a family enterprise evolve confidently into its next generation.
