Brandy Mayfield is the Chief Underwriting Officer at Davies, bringing more than 25 years of experience across the P&C insurance industry. She helps insurers modernise products, strengthen operational performance, and prepare for the changing demands of global insurance markets.
Brandy’s background spans product and underwriting leadership across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and North America. She has guided organisations through the development of usage‑based insurance models, where technology and data define exposure in new ways. In addition, she has overseen large‑scale automation programmes that reduced underwriting workload and supported the simplification of product and pricing structures for more than 25 acquired companies. She has also partnered with senior leaders to balance growth and profitability and to help teams use data more effectively in decision‑making and operational improvement.
Brandy primarily works with leaders in product, underwriting, pricing, data, analytics, and operations. She supports clients across a broad range of transformation priorities, including AI deployment, policy‑language evolution, quality‑assurance redesign, and workflow automation. Furthermore, her work includes benchmarking financial and operational performance against internal targets and external market norms.
She brings forward multiple perspectives to support informed decision‑making and focuses on outcomes that improve day‑to‑day effectiveness for frontline teams. Brandy is motivated by helping insurers understand where they sit on the technology and product‑maturity curve and identifying the steps that will meaningfully move them forward.
