How did you end up in Liberty IT?

"I was working in the financial sector prior to joining LIT and was looking for a move to a new area. I knew of LIT's great reputation and I also knew people at all levels who worked in the company - they all had something good to say about LIT, so that prompted me to apply."

Why did you accept the offer?

"I have previously worked for both a consultancy and a large UK financial institution, and LIT combines the plus points of both. We have the security and breadth of work offered by a large organisation, but the feel of a much smaller company and the benefits that brings - such as a strong support network, close camaraderie, and a great social scene."

How did you settle in?

"Very quickly - I had a team and numerous projects to look after just a week after joining! The orientation programme at LIT is very comprehensive and introduces you to every aspect of the company. I was so impressed I now help to run the orientation courses for other new starts!"

What are you working on now?

"I manage a portfolio of projects within the Personal Markets business unit which all support Liberty's Property and Auto (car) insurance business. They range from strategic development on the existing Sales and Servicing platform (used by 4,000 reps daily to quote and service millions of policies every year) to greenfield development of new applications to support these lines of business."

What do you like best about working in Liberty IT?

"The people, the challenges, the support from my team and my peers - you don't get a chance to get bored around here!"
