Both executives will focus on clients and partners, respectively, in Europe, including Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg) and DACH (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland). The company recently announced its expansion into these regions.

Previously experience design practice lead for MRM-MCCANN in London, Mansfield brings to LiveArea more than 20 years of expertise in planning, designing, and managing digital products and services.

In this role, Ben initially led the formation of foundational technology partnerships for the firm, including Adobe, Adyen, Avalara, Amplience, InRiver, Klarna, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Yotpo, and Zmags. He has worked with a variety of client brands, too, including Signet Jewelers, Pepe Jeans Group, The Card Factory, gettingpersonal.co.uk, Brown Thomas, Theo Paphitis Retail Group, AER Rianta International, and many more.
