PolyOne Corporation has announced that Scott J. Leffler has been appointed vice president and Treasurer.

Mr. Leffler will now be responsible for all aspects of the company’s capital structure, cash management, insurance and capital markets transactions.  He was appointed to this position after serving as the company’s vice president of Financial Planning and Analysis since 2013, and he will retain those responsibilities while in his new role as Treasurer.  He replaces Daniel J. O’Bryon who has accepted a Chief Financial Officer position with a Florida-based company.

Mr. Leffler joined PolyOne in 2008 as senior finance manager in Corporate Treasury and was later promoted to finance director, South America, while based in the company’s offices in Sao Paulo, Brazil.  He began his career in the financial services industry, working in both trading and banking.  Mr. Leffler earned a bachelor’s degree in economics and history from Yale University and an MBA in finance from Emory University.

“Scott’s breadth of skills and diverse background will be instrumental as he manages and builds PolyOne’s Treasury function,” said Bradley C. Richardson, executive vice president and Chief Financial Officer.  “We are extremely pleased to have Scott in this expanded role, and we wish Dan all the best in his future endeavors after serving PolyOne so well during his tenure here.”
