Concurrent with Edwina taking over as Chief Executive Officer, Michael Griffith will be appointed Chief Investment Officer, having led the Investment Team on an interim basis in 2025.
“I am thrilled to be appointed Chief Executive Officer and I look forward to leading the team. I am also very pleased Michael will be succeeding me as Chief Investment Officer; he has performed the role brilliantly during my maternity leave.
“On behalf of everyone at Hibernia, I would like to thank Tom for his significant contribution to the success of the business and wish him well in his future endeavours.”
