Liberty Specialty fills newly created chief digital transformation role

Liberty Specialty Markets (LSM), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance Group, has appointed Mandy Macqueen to the newly created role of chief digital transformation officer, in a move it hopes will "bring technology and the business closer".

Based in its London office, Macqueen will be responsible for implementing the delivery of LSM’s change agenda and aligning the structure of the project delivery, change and technology teams.

She will report to LSM chief operating officer Kirk Maddern and global risk solutions chief information officer John Heveran.

Macqueen has several years of experience in major IT and change roles, both in-house and as a consultant. These include managing large IT departments in financial services, including legal and compliance and retail and corporate banking; personally managing a large number of global business and IT change programmes and working closely with regulators and bank boards on operational resilience reviews.

“We welcome Mandy to Liberty and are excited about her new role,” said Maddern. “The role was created to support LSM’s objective to bring technology and the business closer together as a single force delivering value and capabilities to the company.”
