EBS Building Society has appointed Emer Finnan to its board, subject to the approval of the Financial Regulator.
Ms Finnan joined EBS two years ago as director of strategic development and company secretary. Before joining, she was a director with NCB Corporate Finance. Ms Finnan is also a member of the RTÉ Authority.
Her appointment follows the announcement earlier this month that chief executive Ted McGovern would step down at the end of the summer after seven years in the job.
His resignation came following a turbulent period for the society, after details of boardroom rows became public ahead of the AGM in April. Independent director Eithne Tinney narrowly failed to be re-elected at the meeting despite not having the support of the board.
