Alba Bank CEO Rod Ashley steps down after six years at the helm

  • Dominic Wade has joined Alba Bank as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), moving from his previous position as CFO at Unity Trust Bank.
  • The changes in leadership come after Alba Bank made two senior appointments a few months ago, with Robert Sharpe becoming the chair of the board and Andrew Lewis joining as the new Chief Risk Officer (CRO).
