Serving our customers on the east coast

Ecclesiastical’s Atlantic Regional Branch serves customers in Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Our offices are located in the Purdy’s Wharf complex, a striking new business centre situated at the edge of Halifax Harbour. Offering unsurpassed views of downtown Halifax and the scenic harbour, the complex has fast become an architectural icon. Ecclesiastical chose this complex for its superior location and amenities, as well as its energy efficiency. The complex is known for its innovative cooling system which uses cold seawater drawn from the harbour floor to meet the buildings’ cooling requirements.

Our experienced and knowledgeable Halifax team has years of expertise in the industry. Led by Michael Thornhill, Regional Manager, the team works closely with brokers and clients throughout the region offering tailored solutions and comprehensive specialist insurance services.
