Liberty Mutual Insurance has promoted Martino D’Aliesio to regional manager of its Bristol office.

Former manager Jonathan Powell has returned to Australia.

D’Aliesio joined LMI in 2005 and was previously regional casualty manager in Bristol.

Liberty Mutual Insurance Europe chief executive Sean Rocks said: “Martino has been with our Bristol office since it launched so he knows the market and its issues.

"I am confident that he is the right person to take the operation forward building on the progress achieved under Jonathan Powell."
