Business Profile: Paul Whitehead – Allstate Insurance

No job is too big or too small for Paul Whitehead. Beginning with humble roots of working in the fast-food industry, Whitehead worked his way into management. From there he continued perfecting his managerial skills as a life insurance agent, followed by becoming the general manger of a building company.

About three years ago, he returned to the insurance industry and joined Leland’s Allstate office. Whitehead became an agent because he wanted to help protect what’s important to others. His Allstate team specializes in auto, homeowners, motorcycle and life insurance.

“At my agency, my staff and I strive to provide great service to anyone who walks in,” he says. “I find great pleasure in assisting residents and welcoming new faces to our bustling community.”

Whitehead says he is is glad to be part of a healthy and quickly expanding population. After residing in Wilmington for 17 years, he noticed the growth and burgeoning business opportunities available in Leland. In 2007 he moved into Jefferson Landing, where he still lives with his beagle/jack Russell terrier. He takes pride in his neighborhood and is grateful the community offers so many amenities. A believer of maintaining a healthy work-play balance, he enjoys playing golf, listening to live music, watching sports and soaking up the sun by the pool or beach. Whitehead visits his son, Christopher, and daughter-in-law, Emily, who live in North Carolina as well as welcomes them to visit here a few times a year. They also travel to Cape Cod, Whitehead’s hometown, once a year together to visit family and friends.

However, he says, “I am always eager to return to Brunswick because this is now where I call home.”
