Barclays has announced the appointment of James Jordan as head of mid-corporate to lead the mid-corporate market for the South West region.

James joins Barclays from HSBC UK, where he spent over two decades holding a variety of senior roles across the corporate and commercial bank.

More recently, James led the partnerships team within the strategy and innovation division for HSBC Commercial Banking, working closely with a range of different financial technology businesses to develop new customer propositions.

In his new role at Barclays, James will be responsible for the continued growth of Barclays mid-corporate, deepening existing and new client relationships, operating between £6.5 million and £50 million turnover, and being responsible for managing a team of 18 colleagues based at offices located in Bristol, Exeter and Truro.

Commenting on the appointment Mark Stuckey, Barclays head of mid-corporate for the South of the UK, said: “I am pleased to welcome James to Barclays who brings a wealth of industry knowledge particularly in the retail and corporate sector which will prove invaluable.

"Our ambition is to continue to strengthen our mid-corporate teams and industry specialists to support clients in fulfilling their business goals across the region now and in the future.”

James added: “I am thrilled to be appointed into this role and look forward to leading the Barclays mid-corporate team across the region which has a unique, diverse and vibrant economy.

"I look forward to working with the team as we focus on successfully providing an outstanding service to our clients and helping the local and regional economy to thrive.”

An early advocate of online news, he spent the first years of the 2000s telling his bosses that the internet posed both the biggest opportunity and greatest threat to the newspaper industry and the art of journalism. He was right on both counts.

Since 2006 he has enjoyed a career as a freelance journalist. He lives in rural Wiltshire with one wife, two children, and three cats.
