Jon will be a member of the Group Executive Committee with responsibility for oversight of conduct and compliance globally across all RBS divisions as well as strategic leadership of the Group’s relationships with regulators. This is a newly created role which reports directly to Group Chief Executive Stephen Hester.

Jon has over 30 years experience working across the banking industry, most recently as Partner for Financial Services with KPMG. Prior to this, he was Managing Director, Supervision for the Financial Services Authority leading the regulator’s supervisory actions to restructure, recapitalise and strengthen the banking sector.

“If we achieve these objectives, and do so in the right way, RBS will become a really good bank. Jon will be an excellent addition to the management team and I look forward to working with him when he takes up the position.”
