Robin Pearson has returned to The Right Mortgage & Protection Network as head of risk.
He was previously the network’s compliance manager and business development manager between 2017 and 2023.
Pearson will oversee its risk management framework and compliance strategy, with responsibilities covering complaints handling, acting as data controller for the business, managing data protection and GDPR compliance, and maintaining its compliance manual.
He will also oversee adviser and product risk, and provide regulatory updates to the board.
Pearson joins from Mortgage Connect (NI) Ltd most recently, where he was compliance manager and has also held roles at LSL Property Services, Accenture Operations, UKAR, FOS, KPMG and Deloitte.
Jack Norrey, compliance director at The Right Mortgage & Protection Network, said: “We are delighted to welcome Robin back in this pivotal role.
“His extensive track record in risk, governance and adviser development, combined with his deep understanding of TRM, will be instrumental as we continue to strengthen our compliance framework.
“Robin’s leadership will ensure advisers are supported in meeting regulatory expectations and, crucially, in delivering good outcomes for their clients.”
Pearson added: “It feels great to return to The Right Mortgage & Protection Network, an organisation where I’ve always felt aligned with the culture and the commitment to doing the right thing for advisers and their customers.
“In my new role as head of risk, I’m excited to build on my past experience here and help shape a strong, forward-looking compliance and governance strategy for the network.”
