Speakers

SPEAKER

Gareth Millward, Vulnerable Customer Manager, IKANO BANK

I have worked within the financial services industry over 20 years. In that time have been lucky enough to hold various positions across several Banks and credit providers, this includes opening, servicing and within a collections environment. This has enabled me to support people throughout various stages of their journey and with multiple financial products. Through all this time the need to support customers that require additional support has always been present. However, over recent years our industry is beginning to better understand what role we all play and with additional guidance coming just last year from our regulator this additional focus is enabling us all to review what support we can provide with a new lens. Over the past 6 years I have working specifically in this space for a debt collection function and this past January I have joined Ikano Bank to help champion the great work that has already been done and drive continuous improvement in an ever changing and complex environment that all our customers live in.
