“I was attracted to an organisation that takes a long-term view and focuses on delivering value to its members. From supporting them with their mortgages – often the largest financial commitment of their lives – to helping them save for their future. In what’s been a year of change for the Society, my main priority has been maintaining the integrity of our reporting to protect the interest of the Society and its members. This year, I’ll be supporting the smooth transition to our new Group Chief Financial Officer – making sure we maintain our high standards and support the future development of the Society.
