David Cooper, group chief executive, said: “This year we started to roll-out our financial wellness portfolio in the worksite channel to a wide range of employers and pension schemes, and Rob will spearhead the expansion of our propositions to help fulfil our purpose to help more people achieve a better later life.”
Hudson added: “I’m looking forward to helping the team extend the digitally focussed services and do our part to help close the UK financial advice gap so more people get the help they need.”
