Richard Fearon, formerly non-executive director, has been appointed chair of the group risk committee, bringing significant experience in risk management and financial services governance. Wayne Bowser will remain a board member and chair of the audit committee, ensuring continuity of oversight.

Within Together Personal Finance, current non-executive director John Hooper will succeed Richard Gregory as chair with effect from October 1st 2026, subject to regulatory approval.

This is part of a planned succession following Richard’s eight-year term. Richard will step down from the board on the same date. The board thanks him for his service and welcomes John to the role.

Together said it “remains committed to high standards of corporate governance and will continue to review its Board and Committee composition to support the long-term interests of its stakeholders.”
