Market Harborough Building Society (MHBS) has appointed Brad Nicholls as deputy CFO.

Nicholls joins from Newcastle Building Society, where we worked as director of strategic finance. Prior to this, he held senior roles at Nottingham Building Society, Arrow Global and The Co-operative Bank.

The mutual said Nicholls’ appointment comes amid its expansion of its specialist lending capabilities, customer and broker propositions, and diversification into new markets.

Nicholls (pictured) said: “I’m delighted to be joining Market Harborough Building Society at such an exciting point in its journey. Having previously had the opportunity to work alongside many colleagues across the organisation, I’ve seen first-hand the ambition, culture and commitment that make the society such a special place to be. I look forward to helping maintain this momentum and creating lasting impact.”

Iain Kirkpatrick, CEO of MHBS, said: “Brad’s appointment is a significant addition to our leadership team. He brings a wealth of experience, together with a strong track record of driving business performance and strategic development within mutual and banking organisations. Brad’s expertise will be invaluable as we invest in new opportunities and deliver on our long-term strategy as a purpose-led mutual. We’re delighted to welcome him to the society.”
