View profile for Sarah Harrison

Chief Operating Officer at Cabinet Office

Very excited to be joining the Building Societies Association later this year as its next CEO. Fantastic opportunity to support and grow the amazing work of member owned building societies and credit unions: serving 23m consumers, building financial strength and inclusion and supporting economic growth across the UK.   Looking forward to working with the brilliant BSA team, Council, members and stakeholders and everyone backing the growth of the UK mutuals sector. #originalmoneymovement #UKsavingsweek

The BSA is delighted to announce the appointment of Sarah Harrison as its next Chief Executive. Sarah is an experienced chief executive and has over 30 years in strategic leadership roles as a public servant, working both for regulators and the government. Sarah joins the BSA from the UK Government’s Cabinet Office, where she is currently Chief Operating Officer. Her extensive senior experience of government and regulation, her expertise in communications and corporate affairs and her leadership roles in relation to both consumer engagement and digital transformation ideally equip her to take on the leadership of the BSA at such a pivotal moment. Sarah, who will be the BSA’s first female CEO, will be taking over from current Chief Executive, Robin Fieth, who is leaving the BSA after 12 years. Sarah will take up the role from 1 December.  Find out more 👉 https://lnkd.in/ehranz5n

Congratulations Sarah Harrison. I am sure you will be missed by the Cabinet Office. It seems like a wonderful opportunity for you and one which I am sure you will add significant value and play an integral role in the future success. I would just like to take this opportunity to wish you all the very best.

Welcome to the world of mutuality, Sarah. The natives are friendly to refugees from Government and regulation.

Congratulations Sarah ❤️
