As a member-owned organisation Citysave Credit Union has a volunteer Board of Directors in place, that shapes the strategic direction of the organisation.
Citysave Credit Union Board members give up their time and carry out duties for no payment. The day to day management and operations are delegated to the
staff of Citysave.

Ann O’Connell – Chair

Phil Beardmore – Vice Chair

Nick Leitch – Treasurer

Anne Barnett – Non Executive Director, Chartered FCIPD

David Clarke

Jo Swain – Non-Executive Director

Sean Lynch – CEO

The Board remains ultimately responsible for ensuring the Credit Union is well managed and operates within the law and all applicable Financial conduct regulations.

Directors are elected annually by the membership at the Annual General Meeting and they are elected for a term of three years. It is the duty of every Director to act in the interests of the members of Citysave Credit Union and to safeguard the assets of the Credit Union.

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) must approve nominated directors holding Senior managers regime positions before they are able to take formal office.
