Duck Creek Technologies has announced the addition of Chris McCloskey to its leadership team as Chief Operating Officer.

Duck Creek states that the addition of McCloskey will be instrumental in driving key strategy, operational and transformation initiatives across the entire business, particularly within its customer and professional services organisations.

McCloskey joins Duck Creek from Datto, where he was Chief Customer Officer for the cybersecurity and business continuity company.

At Datto, McCloskey was responsible for building a new customer success organisation that significantly improved technical implementation, customer satisfaction and retention, and partner health.

Before joining Datto, he grew through sales and customer-facing leadership roles to become COO Americas, at London-based Finastra, a multi-billion-dollar financial services software company.

McCloskey earned his MBA from the Stern School of Business at New York University and his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Gettysburg College.

Mike Jackowski, CEO of Duck Creek, commented, “We are delighted to welcome Chris to Duck Creek’s leadership team; he will help us continue to better focus on increasing lifetime value and enable our customers to be more successful.

“Chris is incredibly accomplished in growing and leading large teams through transformation, and having him as a strategic customer-facing leader is the perfect match to advance our vision.”
