Furness Building Society has named a new CEO after its boss of eight years announced his retirement.


Simon Broadley, who became the society’s chief commercial officer in 2022, has now become CEO. He succeeds Chris Harrison, who led the organisation for more than eight years.


Mr Broadley has more than two decades of experience in the financial services sector, predominantly with mutuals. He held senior leadership roles with Yorkshire Building Society and Tenet &


You, and was a non executive director for Leeds City Credit Union.


The society says Furness Peninsula resident Mr Broadley “is a passionate advocate for the local community and will be key to driving Furness Building Society’s continued investment in Barrow


and the surrounding area”. In 2023 he joined Barrow Business Improvement District as a voluntary non-executive director.


Mr Broadley said: “I’m very proud to take the position of CEO at Furness Building Society, having been part of the leadership team for nearly three years. During this time we’ve continued to


evolve as a building society that always puts people first, ensuring that we provide the services that support our members and our community.


"Working with Chris Harrison has been the best grounding to succeed him as CEO, and I wish him well in his retirement.”


Chris Harrison, former CEO of Furness Building Society, added: “It’s been a privilege to guide Furness for the past eight years and be part of a team of incredibly talented people who have


transformed the organisation into a modern-day building society for the future.


"I’m personally delighted that Simon will drive the next phase of development. He will be an excellent leader for our people and will ensure a positive outlook for our members and


communities.”
