Manchester-based litigation finance firm IQuote Limited has bolstered its senior leadership team with the appointment of a new Director of Campaigns, reinforcing its commitment to expansion and innovation in the sector.
Stepping into the role is Katie Doherty, an experienced litigation finance specialist with a track record of driving growth and operational success.
She has held senior positions at various law firms prior and has worked alongside IQuote CEO Craig Cornick for over 15 years across multiple roles.
Katie said she was both delighted and grateful for the opportunity and expressed a keen desire to get started as soon as possible.
“It’s an incredibly exciting time for IQuote as we continue expanding our legal tech partnerships and investing in new opportunities,” Katie said. “This is a fast-moving industry, and I’m looking forward to leading campaigns that will drive the firm’s next stage of growth.
“I can’t wait to get stuck in. IQuote has evolved massively in respect of its business offerings, the firms we are investing in, and the different campaigns we are now exploring. You have to be constantly thinking on your feet; there’s never a dull moment.”
Originally aspiring to become a solicitor, Doherty began her career in legal administration before transitioning into finance and business strategy. She first collaborated with Craig in 2010, playing a key role in business operations, asset management, and claims handling.
Katie thanked her team at IQuote for all their help and support.
“They have all been fantastic, and I have so much admiration for Craig,” she said.
“For him nothing is impossible; if you say, ‘it can’t be done,’ he will immediately tell you that it can and how you can make it happen.”
Craig Cornick, CEO of IQuote Limited, said: “Katie has been instrumental in the success of multiple businesses I’ve led, and her ability to think strategically while keeping operations running smoothly is unmatched.
“She knows how to build and execute campaigns that deliver real results, and that’s exactly what we need as we continue to scale. Her expertise in litigation finance, combined with her hands-on leadership style, makes her a perfect fit for this role.
“She’s got an incredible work ethic also. From the very start, Katie has always been willing to roll up her sleeves and do whatever it takes to get the job done.
“Whether it was managing complex operations or jumping in to solve unexpected challenges, she’s always been a problem-solver. That kind of determination is what sets her apart and why I’m confident she’ll drive real impact in this position.”
