Dudley Building Society has announced the appointment of Andrew Turvey as chief risk officer, subject to regulatory approval.
Turvey (pictured) has a broad range and depth of experience across different risk disciplines and regulatory compliance, having previously worked for building societies, banks and the Financial Conduct Authority. He is an active Data Standards Committee member for the Bank of England.
This is the latest appointment that is supporting the ambitious growth plans of the Society. Turvey will be working on developing the mortgage lending policy to make sure the Dudley reacts to market changes and is able to offer more lending solutions to intermediaries and their customers.
He said: “I am delighted to be joining Dudley at an exciting time for the Society. I understand the specialist mortgage lending business, having recently worked for Vida Homeloans.
“My main role as CRO will be to keep the Society safe by making sure we identify and manage risk appropriately. It’s a very collaborative role working closely with senior management. We have an ambitious strategic plan and it’s a fantastic opportunity to work here and be part of that.”
Robert Oliver, distribution director at the Society, added: “In recent months, we have seen a high volume of mortgage applications come through to the Society. This progress is a testament to both the products and service that we offer and the growth in the Intermediary Support Team. I’m excited to be working with Andrew as we continue to seek to expand our mortgage proposition.”
