He has played a vital role in our success to date, and we are enormously grateful for his stable and effective leadership of the Board during his tenure.”
“We are pleased that Shonaid will be David’s successor as Chair of ClearBank UK. Shonaid has significant experience in financial services and her expertise and leadership have served ClearBank well. We look forward to working with her in the new role.”
David Gagie, ClearBank UK Board Chair said, “I am immensely proud of what the organisation has achieved and feel privileged to have led the Board over the last five years. I am pleased by the choice the Board has made in appointing Shonaid and confident that her experience and range of skills will complement and further strengthen the ClearBank UK Board in the years to come. I look forward to working closely with her to ensure a smooth handover.”
