“Katie’s deep understanding of brokers ’needs and leading operations functions will help us deliver smarter, faster, and high quality support. Her focus on simplifying and transforming processes means brokers can spend less time on admin and more time growing their businesses," Bell added.

In her new role, Modra will lead the evolution of LMG’s broker service centre in its ambition to become a seamless, one-touch hub for broker support.

Speaking on her appointment, Modra stated: “My focus will be on solutions that improve broker interactions with LMG, saving them time and allowing them to focus on their customers and businesses. LMG’s commitment to innovation and transformation is inspiring, and I’m thrilled to contribute to this transformation.

Rob Thomas, LMG’s national director, said Modra’s appointment is about giving brokers the support, tools and tech they need to thrive.

“By transforming service delivery, we’re helping brokers focus on what matters most: their clients.

“With Katie’s leadership, LMG is reaffirming its commitment to empowering brokers with efficient, scalable solutions—so they can deliver even greater value to their clients,” he said.
