Ironshore names new head of global claims

Ironshore, a Liberty Mutual Company, has appointed Kristin McMahon as head of global claims.

McMahon will assume the role from Mike Mitrovic following his recent departure from the company.

In her new role, McMahon will have global responsibility for claims management oversight and litigation management services, reporting to Shaun Kelly, president of Ironshore.

McMahon joined Ironshore in 2008 as chief claims officer for IronHealth and has held various roles since, including president of IronHealth’s liability and regulatory lines and most recently head of US claims. Prior to joining Ironshore, McMahon was a partner with law firm Kerns, Frost & Pearlman, where she specialized in representing professional liability insurers and reinsurers in the US, Bermuda and London.

"We are pleased that Ms. McMahon will assume this important global leadership role. She has been a valued member of the Ironshore team since Ironshore’s inception," said Kelly.
