Corporate governance in financial services
SurveyCorporate governance in financial services: how FTSE 350 banks, insurers and investment managers compare on board independence, culture, diversity and AI.
Effective governance begins with directors who act with integrity, accountability, and foresight. Their behaviours shape culture, drive performance, and safeguard trust—making leadership not just strategic, but ethical and enduring
With over 25 years experience in capital markets, finance, and management consulting, I work strategically as an executive mentor and board advisor to listed, entrepreneurial, and privately-held companies. My focus is on enhancing governance and sustainability practices that strengthen reputational value and long-term performance.
I’m passionate about helping leadership teams navigate complex challenges—whether related to governance, funding, sustainability, or growth. What sets me apart is my ability to blend strategic insight with practical solutions, drawing on deep experience across capital structures and sectors, including large multi-nationals as well as smaller, high-growth businesses. I’ve led transformational change programmes that have unlocked engagement, improved performance, and delivered measurable impact—particularly in organisations facing reputational or operational inflection points.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and working on my farm, as well as supporting community initiatives, and staying curious through reading and travel. These interests keep me energised to bring fresh perspectives to boardrooms.
