A Suncorp executive will leave the Brisbane-based bancassurance giant this March.

Sarah Harland will step down from her role as Suncorp’s chief information officer, after making a significant contribution in strengthening the company’s digital transformation over the past three years, said Steve Johnston, Suncorp CEO.

Harland’s resignation will take effect on March 27, with Darren Abbruzzese, Suncorp’s executive general manager for digital, labs, and insurance technology, to act as CIO while the group searches for a permanent replacement, CIO and Financial Standard reported.

The outgoing CIO joined Suncorp in 2016 to lead Suncorp’s technology function, including digital enablement, cloud and infrastructure, security services, data, and innovation labs.

Prior to Suncorp, she was executive general manager for technology and operations at Medibank, had worked at ANZ Bank, and had held CIO roles at the National Health Service in the UK and QWEST Communications in Denver, US, the reports said.
