Banking giant appoints new credit card chief
Jul 24 2008 by Bill Gleeson, Liverpool Daily Post
BANK of America has appointed a new boss at its European credit card headquarters in Chester.
Ian O'Doherty has been named as Europe card services executive, replacing Lance Weaver, who has become leader of the North America card services business.
Mr O’Doherty will have responsibility for BoA’s card services businesses in the UK, Ireland and Spain. He will also oversee expansion efforts into other European markets. He previously oversaw the expansion of Bank of America's MBNA Ireland card operations from its HQ in Carrick-on-Shannon.
The Irishman is the first non-American to be appointed to run the European operation since it opened in Chester in 1993.
BoA’s credit card business operates in Europe under the MBNA brand, and also provides affinity credit cards for over 900 organisations.
