OSB Group has hired two executives to help drive the firm’s environmental, social, and corporate governance programmes.  

The business — whose brands include Kent Reliance and Precise Mortgages — says Shana Roberts and Lexi Tsalkitzoglou will “support the delivery of the social element of OSB Group’s ESG principles”.  

Roberts becomes the firm’s group communities and charitable business partner, and is responsible for overseeing its support of charity partners and local good causes through fundraising, fund matching and volunteering.  

Roberts has worked for over a decade as an events, partnership and engagement manager at several firms, such as Unity Trust Bank and savings and retirement business ReAssure.   

Tsalkitzoglou becomes OSB’s diversity, equity & inclusion specialist, and will bid to foster an inclusive and diverse culture and environment for colleagues, customers and suppliers.   

The group says she will “spearhead campaigns promoting diversity, equity and inclusion at OSB Group”.  

Tsalkitzoglou was previously head of the Mitie Foundation, the charitable arm of the facilities management company, where she worked for seven-and-a-half years.  

OSB Group ESG sustainability director Neil Richardson says: “Shana and Lexi bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to OSB Group and are already making positive impacts in their areas. They are both perfectly positioned to help our ESG commitments grow and flourish.”
