After six years leading Wauwatosa-based insurance software developer
Zywave, chief executive officer
Jason Liu has left the company and accepted a new position.
Liu’s last day at Zywave was on April 30. He is now CEO at London-based information services company
Wood Mackenzie, according to an announcement from the firm.
“Leading Wood Mackenzie during such a dynamic time in the global energy and natural resources sector is incredibly exciting," said Liu. "As the industry undergoes substantial change, Wood Mackenzie remains at the forefront, delivering the information solutions critical for our customers to navigate these complexities."
Liu will continue to serve as an advisor to Zywave’s management team. He is also still an investor in the company.
"Zywave’s leadership team has locked arms to drive continued success and strategic direction on go-to-market initiatives and product vision," according to a statement from the company. "This means customers and industry partners will be working more closely than ever with existing members of our senior leadership team, including chief revenue officer
Scott Rudy and chief product officer
Eric Rentsch."
Zywave has also tapped veteran executive
Mark Ties, CEO of Minneapolis-based Perforce Software, to help with the succession process and management of the business while Zywave’s board works to find a permanent replacement for Liu.
