Starling alum Megan Cooper joins ClearBank as CPO from Barclays

From a challenger to an incumbent and now.. a clearing bank.

In brief:

- Before her roles at Barclays Cooper was chief platform officer at Starling Bank and will lead ClearBank’s product management team and develop its product strategy.

- ClearBank saw revenues in the first half of 2023 jump 144 per cent year-on-year to £49.3mn

- Cooper will create and execute ClearBank’s roadmap as it expands into new markets and as it looks to retain new signs of profitability.

What does this mean?

“ClearBank’s success is built on understanding its customers’ needs, and that only comes from listening and using that insight to deliver great products,” said Cooper. “I look forward to working with ClearBank and continuing this approach, creating services that will meet customer needs both in the UK, Europe and the US.”
