Liza Vizard was appointed to the new post of head of CSR and public affairs at HBOS bank in 2005. 'Vizard, who was previously head of corporate responsibility at Prudential, will oversee a review of the four-person CSR and public affairs department.' [1]

Responsibility and spin - the same thing?

Vizard appears to be responsible for lobbying, spin and corporate responsibility:

Martin Batt, corporate responsibility manager at UK Bank HBOS, is leaving to join consultancy The Virtuous Circle. His particular focus is on environmental issues and climate change, but he will provide a full corporate responsibility advisory service. At HBOS Batt will be replaced by Liza Vizard, who steps into the new role of head of corporate responsibility and public affairs, adding government relations to the brief.[2]
The HBOS CR team reports to Shane O'Riordain, General Manager, Group Communications. The recently appointed Head of CR and Public Affairs, Liza Vizard, is a member of the HBOS Forum, the 700 most senior managers in the company. The CR team supports Phil Hodkinson and the 17 members of the Corporate Responsibility Forum, and works with a range of CR practitioners to help implement The Way We Do Business across the HBOS Group.[3]
