Deanna Oppenheimer quits Worldpay Board after joining Hargreaves Lansdown
Deanna Oppenheimer has resigned from the board of directors at Worldpay after being appointed as the non-executive chair of Hargreaves Lansdown.
The news of Oppenheimer's exit comes under a month after Worldpay was formed through the combination of Vantiv Inc and Worldpay Group PLC.
The Times reported last week that she had committed to resigning from two of her eight roles within the next six months after concerns were raised by Hargreaves Lansdown shareholders following her appointment.
Oppenheimer sits on a number of boards including Whitbread, AXA and Tesco, has over 25 years of experience in senior roles at Barclays and Washington Mutual and in 2003 was selected as one of the "Top Five" most influential women in banking by US Banker magazine.
Of her new appointment at Hargreaves Lansdown, Oppenheimer said: 2Hargreaves Lansdown is an innovative market leader for very good reasons and I was immediately attracted by the people, their values and the client first culture."
