Movera has appointed Glen Walker as its director of professional standards.

Walker brings over two decades of experience in client-facing and risk-focused roles, having worked across both large financial institutions and specialist firms.

In his first 100 days, Walker has introduced a new risk management framework, implemented a risk management platform, and begun a full reshaping of the professional standards function to support Movera’s growth plans.

As part of his long-term vision, he is now expanding the professional standards team.

The company has started recruiting for a number of new roles, including within Movera’s financial crime, advisory, client care and technical support functions.

Movera group chief operating officer Craig Underwood says: “Glen’s appointment is a significant step forward for us. He brings not only deep technical knowledge but a leadership style that’s grounded, people-focused and future-ready.”

“The work he’s doing to build out the team and bring professional standards to life across the business will support our long-term growth and create exciting development opportunities for talent across Movera.”
