The National Employment Savings Trust (NEST) has named Helen Dean as its new chief executive.
Dean, who is currently executive director, product and marketing at NEST, will assume the role in the autumn.
She will replace Tim Jones, who in February announced he would be standing down from the role after five years to develop a global digital money product.
NEST chairman Otto Thoresen said: “It’s fantastic news that we have been able to appoint somebody with Helen’s background and experience, and her knowledge of NEST, to take over. The next few years are going to be critical ones in terms of ensuring auto enrolment goes smoothly for small and micro businesses. Helen’s frontline experience of the challenges we face will be invaluable in helping NEST to navigate that journey.
Dean (pictured) said: “I’m delighted to take on the role of CEO at NEST. Under Tim Jones’ leadership we’ve built very strong foundations so far and I’m looking forward to building on those to help NEST to tackle the next stages of auto enrolment.
“NEST has got an amazing team of people, all with a very clear sense of mission – helping millions more people save for retirement. With their support, I know we’ll continue to deliver what our members and employers need.”
