Encova Insurance Appoints Ramu Lingala as Chief Information Officer
Encova Insurance has named Ramu Lingala as its new Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer, succeeding longtime CIO Tony Laska, who will retire at the end of this year.
Lingala officially assumed the role on May 1 after joining the company in February to become familiar with its operations and culture.
Laska, who has held key leadership roles at BrickStreet, Motorists, and Encova, will remain with the company in an advisory capacity through the end of 2025.
“I want to congratulate Tony on a successful career and thank him for his unmatched contributions to BrickStreet, Motorists and now Encova,” said Encova President and CEO TJ Obrokta Jr. “I still remember recruiting him many years ago and the remarkable impact he had during the early years of BrickStreet. With that said, we are very excited to have Ramu join our senior leadership team as Tony’s successor. Under Ramu’s IT leadership, we will continue improving our systems and strengthening our capabilities as we strive to be the carrier of choice for our agents and policyholders.”
As CIO, Lingala will oversee Encova’s technology teams, ensuring seamless operations for associates, customers, and partners. He will also work closely with business teams to advance the company’s enterprise strategy and collaborate with IT leaders to guide technology roadmaps and execution.
Lingala brings more than 25 years of experience in information technology leadership. Prior to joining Encova, he served as Vice President of Business Lines Technology at Liberty Mutual, where he led large-scale transformation programs and restructured IT operating models.
Encova’s leadership transition highlights the company’s continued focus on innovation and operational excellence as it moves into a new chapter of digital transformation.
