Afin Bank has appointed Rebecca Griffin (pictured above) as chief risk officer.
Rebecca joins from 118 118 Money where she held the same role and brings over 15 years of financial services experience with her.
Earlier in her career she spent almost 12 years at Hinckley & Rugby Building Society.
“Rebecca has a great set of skills in finance and compliance, with valuable experience in helping organisations to grow,” said Jason Oakley, CEO at Afin Bank.
“[She] will be an important part of the bank as we develop.”
Rebecca added: “I was attracted to the bank because it’s still quite new and I love helping to build new functions and teams.
“And I love the pace of Afin, it’s very entrepreneurial, so helping the bank to grow safely is a fantastic opportunity.
“Everyone I have met at Afin is passionate and engaged about the bank and our ethos of supporting customers, which is so refreshing and infectious. It is a collaborative culture, which is very important to me.”
