TISA, the investments and savings membership organisation, has expanded its senior management team with three new appointments: Harry Weber-Brown – Digital Innovation Director; Theresa Gibson – Head of Marketing, Sponsorship and Events; and Andy Gordon – Regulation Executive.
Weber-Brown joins the permanent staff having managed TISA’s key digital projects. In his new role he will direct TISA’s digital innovation programme including an industry initiative to deliver a Digital Identity for consumers of financial services products, MIFID II Industry Standards & Solution, Open Asset Management, the Savings and Investments Dashboard and TISA’s growing work on Open Standards. Weber-Brown has over 20 years’ experience working in digital strategic planning and delivery across financial services in the UK and Europe and in the commercial, public and not-for-profit sectors.
Gibson’s role is to further develop TISA’s marketing and communications with member firms, increase awareness of TISA’s activity with stakeholders and enhance the promotion of the training and seminar programme. Gibson has wide ranging marketing experience from across the retail sector including event creation, management and sponsorship.
Gordon will work alongside Jeffrey Mushens, TISA’s Technical Policy Director, to extend the support we offer members and the broader market on the interpretation and implementation of new legislation and regulation. In particular, Gordon will lead the drive to enable more representatives from member firms to join TISA technical working groups and update the market through an extended regulatory seminar and training programme. Gordon has extensive senior level experience across a broad cross-section of financial services companies and possesses an extensive knowledge and understanding of regulation and the support firms need to achieve and retain compliance.
David Dalton-Brown, TISA’s Director General, says: “TISA has gone from strength to strength over the past 12 months and I am delighted that this has enabled us to expand the management team with these key appointments.”
“Our membership continues to rapidly increase with more new members in the pipeline. We are delivering on significant consumer focussed, industry projects including digital developments, digital open standards, children’s education and savings, guidance, retirement planning, MiFID II and other regulatory implementation. Our strategic policy work is also increasingly recognised by Government Ministers, departments and regulators.”
“The appointments of Harry, Theresa and Andy will enable us to focus resources on the key areas, continue to grow our activity and support our drive to promote better financial futures for consumers and deliver added value to our members.”
