In his role, Weston will be responsible for leading mortgage and consumer lending strategy and for the continued development of products and services in these areas, whilst meeting the evolving needs of borrowers.
He will sit on the UK Retail and Business Banking executive committee, reporting to Ashok Vaswani, CEO of UK Retail and Business Banking at Barclays.
Weston joins Barclays from National Australia Bank (NAB), where he has been employed since 2009 in the position of General Manager, Broker Platforms, based in Melbourne, Australia.
Vaswani said that Weston brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience and he will be a welcome addition to the team. I am excited about the opportunities his fresh thinking and external experience from an overseas mortgage market will bring to help us drive forward our strategy and deliver innovative products and services to our UK customers.
