Griffin, a full-stack Banking-as-a-Service platform, has appointed SuperAwesome co-founder Marina Gorey as chief people officer.
The fast-growing FinTech was recently authorised, subject to restrictions, as a UK bank by the Prudential Regulation Authority.
Gorey co-founded kid-tech startup SuperAwesome in 2012, which was acquired by Epic Games, and has over 15 years of experience in tech, specialising in creating high-performing organisations through effective hiring and a focus on empowerment.
Over the past five years, she has served as chief people officer at Lick and worked in-house at Seedcamp, advising portfolio companies.
“Griffin is turning heads in a highly competitive industry, demonstrating the FinTech community’s appetite for a bank customers can build on,” said Gorey.
“I have been hugely impressed by the incredible culture that Griffin has already built, and I am excited to have been invited to help it on the next stage of its journey.”
Gorey joins Griffin during a critical time for the bank, which says her appointment is part of a strategy to scale its open and transparent culture and attract top talent.
“Continuing to cultivate a talented and engaged team is essential to our future success,” said David Jarvis, CEO and co-founder of Griffin.
“We are thrilled to welcome Marina as our new chief people officer and believe her expertise will help us further enhance our culture and internal operations, accelerating our growth trajectory and better serving our customers and employees.”
