“I am very excited to be joining at such a pivotal moment for WBN,” Yovich said. “I look forward to working with WBN’s global team, collaborating with members, supporting their businesses, and continuing to build on the success of our Young Professionals initiative.”

“I am thrilled Liz will become part of our team in this exciting new role,” said Collins (pictured below). “Our vision for this position is to deliver continual support and growth for the network. Liz joining also emphasizes the success of our YP program, which continues to bring new opportunities to our rising leaders. She has already built great relationships with our members and embodies what our network represents: client focus, deep technical expertise and creativity.”

“Liz has been an amazing credit to the IMA Global Risk & Benefits group and has led her team to deliver world-class EB service to IMA’s multinational clients,” said Sean Jackson, of IMA Global Risk & Benefits. “Liz will be missed at IMA< but I have no doubt that she will be a great asset to the WBN team and to all of our partners around the globe. I look forward to continuing to work with Liz in her new role at WBN.”
