Bank of Ireland's UK chief executive is stepping down from his role after securing the top job at subprime lender Provident Financial. Ian McLaughlin has been at the helm of the Irish bank in Britain since 2019.
Bank of Ireland is headquartered in Dublin, but the organisation employs thousands of UK staff including 900 in Bristol as well in Belfast and London.
Mr McLaughlin, who previously worked as a director at the Royal Bank of Scotland, will remain in the top job until later this year, when he will take over from Provident Financial's Malcolm Le May, who is leaving after five years in the role.
