When it comes to protecting what matters most, land lease homeowners want to know they’re in safe hands. That’s why MHIA is proud to welcome cricket legend Glenn McGrath as our new brand ambassador.
This exciting new chapter for MHIA signals more than just partnering with a familiar face to many Australians, it’s a statement about who we are, what we stand for, and the value we place on doing things right.
Few names in Australian sport carry the same weight as Glenn McGrath. Over a career that spanned 14 years in international cricket, McGrath became known not just for his fierce accuracy and world-record achievements. He was calm under pressure, displayed unwavering focus, and had a team-first attitude.
These are exactly the qualities that MHIA values most and the reason this partnership makes perfect sense.
"Glenn’s approach to cricket was all about discipline, preparation and reliability," says the MHIA Managing Director Ben McInnes. "That’s how we approach insurance too. We believe in being there when it counts just like Glenn was, match after match, year after year."
In a home insurance landscape where large insurers often treat customers like numbers, MHIA takes a different approach. We make insurance personal by delivering exception service, support and care from the first moment you setup a policy to the first claim you need to make and beyond. We don’t try to be all things to all homeowners, we focus on providing insurance to land lease communities, on-site caravans, and cabins, supporting thousands of Australians aged 55 and over with coverage designed for their unique home.
Glenn McGrath understands the importance of trust, both on and off the field.
“When it comes to safeguarding your home, you need more than just a policy, you need someone who understands your world” commented Glenn in our recent interview “for years MHIA has been dedicated to protecting land lease homeowners with personalised cover.”
That sense of care, personal service and consistency resonates deeply with Glenn and MHIA’s customer base. Many of whom have chosen a simplified, stress-free retirement in a land lease communities across the country.
Throughout his career and beyond, Glenn McGrath has become a household name not only for cricketing greatness but also for his authenticity and commitment to his community. As co-founder of the McGrath Foundation, which supports cancer research and so much more across Australia, Glenn has long been a champion for meaningful causes and real-world impact.
At MHIA, our mission has always been to support land lease homeowners often overlooked by the major insurers. Whether they’re moving into a new lifestyle village, buying their first cabin or setting up their dream onsite caravan MHIA has crafted cover to fit their needs when other insurers couldn’t.
It’s this shared purpose that makes Glenn the right fit to represent the MHIA brand.
With Glenn McGrath on board, MHIA is launching a nationwide campaign to raise awareness and reach new homeowners, especially those who may not have heard of MHIA before.

But the goal isn’t just recognition, it’s to reassure land lease homeowners that they can get dependable insurance quickly without the stress of over-explaining.
As our Managing Director Ben puts it:
“Glenn helps us tell the MHIA story. He’s a symbol of strength, integrity and approachability, all the things we strive to offer our customers every day.”
Choosing the right insurance provider is about more than comparing policies, it’s about finding someone you can trust to be there when things go wrong. With MHIA, that trust is built over decades of service, a focus on community, and now, with the backing of one of Australia’s most respected sports figures.
In an industry full of complexity, we aim to keep things simple. In a time of long call cues and automated call-bots you can reach us in under 30 seconds and speak with a real person. Whether you live in a land lease home, own an on-site van, or stay in a permanent cabin, MHIA understands your home.
