significant and sustained contribution to the bank during his
tenure.
Commenting on the changes, Sir Michael Snyder, Metro Bank
Chairman said: "Sally brings deep retail banking expertise that
will be invaluable to Metro Bank as we enter the next chapter for
the bank. She is a great addition to the Board and I look forward
to working with her. I would also like to thank Ben for his service
and commitment since Metro Bank's inception."
Sally Clark added: "Metro Bank has proven itself as a challenger
bank committed to bringing something different to banking and
really delivering for its customers. I'm very much looking forward
to joining the Board as we focus on the bank's future plans and
delivering long-term sustainable growth."

independent NED candidates and Metro Bank expects to make further
