Please welcome our new Chair of Trustees, Barry O’Leary.
Barry is a finance and sales professional with a long history in Investment Banking and Personal Finance. His experience as a Board Member for the Somerset Community Foundation will prove invaluable going forward. In addition, he has been the elected Deputy Leader of the Mendip District Council and Portfolio Holder for the Council’s Finances.
During the application process, Barry discussed his motivation for getting involved as our Independent Chair:
“…this role caught my interest as it offers the opportunity to not just align my skillset in change management to Citizens Advice needs but more importantly, to embrace the opportunities as presented to Citizens Advice and its services as well as the many local communities who depend on it.“
