New Chairman announced
Simon Moore has been appointed Chairman of Cambridge & Counties Bank, having been on the Bank’s board as a non- executive director since its launch in 2012. He becomes its second chairman, succeeding Paul Ffolkes Davis. Simon is on the management board of the Confederation of
British Industry (CBI) where he is the director responsible for London and the South. His 20 years of banking experience includes time at Chase Manhattan, Barclays and Lloyds. He said: “To be asked to take over as Chairman is a huge
honour and a privilege. Paul has been visionary; without him the bank would not have come into existence. He set the tone and continues to be a tremendous challenger and supporter. “Paul is a gifted chair who will be a hard act to follow
and we are delighted he remains on the board as a non-executive director and Vice Chairman. “What attracted me to Cambridge & Counties
Bank in 2012 was that it was a very commercial, professional organisation which was rooted in a customer service culture. “The approach of hiring very experienced
colleagues focused on delivering great customer service seemed to me to be something lost from the banking industry. Getting it right for the customer, first time and quickly, is important to Cambridge & Counties. “We were 12 people at the start and are
now approaching 120 yet, crucially, the culture has been preserved.”

Scott Knowles joins studio school board
A Mansfield school that bridges the gap between education and employment has welcomed Scott Knowles (pictured) to its governing body. Scott, Chief Executive at the Chamber, is the latest addition to the board of governors of Vision Studio School. The school offers a specially-
tailored curriculum that combines academic subjects with vocational specialisms linked to local employment opportunities. It currently has 150 students who
study either engineering or health and social care, taught through project- based learning and work placements with employers. Sponsored by West Nottinghamshire College, it is the only studio school in Nottinghamshire and one of just 39 across the country. Scott said: “It is essential for business and education to continue to work
together as closely as possible to close the skills gap completely. To that end, I’m delighted to have the chance to sit on the studio school’s board of governors and be able to gather first-hand knowledge of the educational perspective while contributing the business viewpoint to the debate, in order to knit together some of the strands from both sides of the discussion.”
