WorkLife by OpenMoney has appointed Niamh McLaughlin as managing director.
McLaughlin has 15 years’ experience in the financial services sector, most recently at legal services firm ME Group, where she was managing director of its litigation funding business.
Alongside this appointment Worklife has also announced that Robert Marshall will move into the newly created role of head of product and proposition at WorkLife, after first joining OpenMoney as head of workplace in 2019.
The company said these two appoints reflect the firm’s commitment to expanding its offering to help meet the benefit needs of SMEs and the corporate advisers who serve them.
Anthony Morrow, founder of OpenMoney says: “This is a pivotal time for WorkLife as we keep driving forward our mission of making financial advice and employee benefits accessible and affordable to every UK business.
“Top of the range financial wellbeing services are at the absolute core of our proposition, and we believe the need for these have never been greater than in the current climate.”
McLaughlin adds: “The pandemic has put huge pressure on UK SMEs and their employees, making this a really a crucial time for the employee benefits market. WorkLife has been doing some fantastic work and I see huge potential to keep driving this forward.”
The WorkLife platform, which can be accessed via a smartphone, tablet or computer, is simple for employers to set up online, linking up with payroll so employees can see and keep track of all their benefits, savings and salary in one place. Employers can also add their own existing benefits and rewards.
