Butterfield appoints three senior managers
The Bank of NT Butterfield & Son Ltd has made three senior management appointments, including Bermudian Sean Lee, who has been appointed group head of Human Resources and joins the executive committee.
Andrew Burns becomes chief risk officer, Cayman Islands. Both appointments are effective from October 1.
In addition, Alexander Twerdahl has joined Butterfield to lead Strategy and Corporate Development for the group with immediate effect.
Mr Lee, who is returning home to Bermuda, is an experienced leader having spent nearly 20 years working in financial services with a focus on retail banking, Butterfield said.
Mr Twerdahl joins Butterfield from Piper Sandler in New York, where he worked for more than 18 years, most recently as managing director and senior research analyst of the Financial Services Group.
Mr Burns, who has served as group head of Human Resources since 2020 and previously as group head of Internal Audit since 2016, takes responsibility for risk management in the Cayman Islands, subject to government and regulatory approvals. He remains a member of the executive committee, having joined in 2017.
Michael Collins, chairman and chief executive, said: “I look forward to continuing to work closely with Andrew and Sean in their new roles, and I am delighted to welcome Alex to Butterfield. Each of these individuals brings extensive knowledge and expertise and these appointments will undoubtedly contribute to achieving our long-term strategy.”
