LONDON (Reuters) – Barclays’ UK director and chair Ian Cheshire is stepping down from Jan 1 2021 to be succeed by Crawford Gillies, the bank said on Friday.
Cheshire has decided he is unable to take on the extra commitment to carry out a programme of change at the unit, Barclays said in a statement.
Gillies will step down from his current position as senior independent director on the Barclays board, with Brian Gilvary succeeding him in that position.
