CivilisedBank has announced the appointment of Michele Turmore (pictured above) as its new chief operating officer (COO).

Michele joins from Harrods Bank, where she was also COO.

At Harrods Bank, she developed and put in place systems, processes and operational efficiencies to support delivery of the overall business plan through a period of expansion and during the sale of the bank.

Before joining Harrods Bank, Michele worked at Lloyds Banking Group, where she held a number of roles at senior manager and director level.

She joins CivilisedBank after it recently announced that it would be reapplying for a banking licence to give it more time to develop its technology platform.

“I am delighted to be joining CivilisedBank at such a crucial phase of its development,” said Michele.

“Its innovative concept provides a proposition for SMEs not currently being offered by the larger high street and online-only banks, and to be part of a team bringing this to fruition is really exciting.”

Mark Stephens, CEO at CivilisedBank, said he was thrilled that Michele was joining CivilisedBank.

“She has a fantastic reputation within the industry for delivering hugely transformational programmes for some of the biggest names in banking, and her joining the team is another key step on our path towards launch.”
