The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has appointed Sheldon Mills as the new Executive Director, Consumers and Competition, and Siobhán Sheridan as Chief People Officer.
The Executive Director, Consumers and Competition post was created last month when it was announced that the FCA’s two existing Supervision divisions would be brought together and merged with the policy and competition functions.
These will form a new, single division led by two Executive Directors: one focused on the FCA’s consumer protection and competition objectives; the other on the objective to protect the financial markets.
Sheldon was formerly interim Executive Director, Strategy and Competition where he has, among other things, led the FCA’s response to ensure industry support for consumers during the pandemic.
Prior to joining the FCA, Sheldon was Senior Director at the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), where he had overall leadership responsibility for the delivery of merger control across the UK economy. Sheldon was recently named as one of the Top 20 Industry Professionals in the Global Diversity List and is also Chair of Trustees at Stonewall.
