Barclays W&IM Names New Head Of Charities
Barclays has handed the role to a familiar face.
Barclays Wealth and Investment Management has appointed
Kathleen Britain as head of its charities division.
Previously, Britain was head of citizenship for the UK and Europe
at Barclays where she led the development of the regional shared
growth ambition strategy. While at Barclays, she also held other
leadership roles within the real estate team and was responsible
for strategy, operations and finance, the bank said in a
statement.
Britain joined Barclays in 2005 from Wachovia Bank, an investment
bank that was acquired by Wells Fargo in 2008, where she worked
within wealth management in New York and San Francisco.
In her new role, she will be responsible for managing the
strategy and proposition for UK-based charity clients within
Barclays W&IM. Britain will be based in London.
“She brings with her an in-depth understanding of the challenges
facing the sector that is crucial in order to support our clients
to achieve their financial objectives and deliver the best
solution for them,” said Dena Brumpton, chief executive of UK
private banking at Barclays W&IM.
