Lifestyle Article - NOW Pensions appoint Fiona Matthews to Trustee Board


NOW: Pensions has announced the appointment of Fiona Matthews to its Board of Trustee Directors, effective from 1st January.

 In her new role, as part of the UK’s second largest independent Auto-Enrolment scheme, Fiona will, through strong and independent governance, play a pivotal role on the board putting members first.
 
 Fiona brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the role, having worked within the pensions and life assurance industry for more than 25 years, holding a number of senior executive roles. Fiona established LifeSight, one of the most successful UK master trusts with 325,000 members and $18bn AUM and oversaw its global expansion.
