Gatehouse Bank, the shariah-compliant bank based in London, has appointed Charles Haresnape as chief executive.
Haresnape has taken over from Fahed Faisal Boodai, chairman and co-founder of Gatehouse Financial Group who has acted as chief executive of Gatehouse during the past year. Boodai will return to his role as chairman of the group. Haresnape started his new role on 8 May.
Haresnape joins from UK specialised lender Aldermore, where he spent six years as group managing director, overseeing the mortgages arm. Previous roles also include at Royal Bank of Scotland where he headed mortgage intermediary sales for both the lender and NatWest for more than 10 years.
Haresnape said: “It is an exciting time to join Gatehouse and lead the bank through its next stage of growth, particularly as we focus on growing the core capabilities of the business and identifying new ways to enhance our bank’s value to all our stakeholders.”
