Matthew Bullock said: “Having steered the society through many changes, including the worst of the financial crisis in 2008/9, now is an appropriate time to make way for a successor.
“Inevitably the Keydata issue has dominated much of the last 12 months, but over the last 12 years it has been providing personal service and engagement with the needs of members and staff which have been my over-riding passions, and which I shall miss.”
The Board has now started the search for Matthew’s successor. Chairman Gordon Horsfield said: "On behalf of the Board I would like to record our appreciation to Matthew for his commitment to the society and its members. He introduced many innovative changes at N&P during his term as our chief executive. More recently, he led the society through the most difficult period for many UK financial services businesses following the global financial crisis in 2008. He will be a difficult act to follow."
