("Tintra", the "Group" or the "Company")
Appointment of Chief Operating Officer
The board of directors (the "Board") of Tintra, the fast-growth
Deep Tech business, is pleased to announce the appointment of Paul
James as Chief Operating Officer ("COO") as the Group continues to
execute its plan to build global banking infrastructure driven by
Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing tools.
While this is not a Board position, the COO will be responsible for
operational rollout of the Group's ambitious strategy. In
particular, Paul's role in ensuring that the innovative technology
being developed in-house is seamlessly integrated with the Temenos
banking software and remains fully compliant with the various
regulations of the multiple jurisdictions in which the Group have
authorisation, have applied for authorisation or anticipate having
authorisation in the future,.
Paul has 25 years of experience in the financial services and
banking sectors including periods at HSBC as a divisional COO and
as the original COO of Starling Bank.
During his career, he has been responsible for driving change
and operational excellence through organisations globally. Paul has
operated at the executive and senior management level of financial
firms and demonstrates experience in the management of technology
and operations both strategically and operationally. He also has
delivered customer experience functions within an operational
support environment and has a strategic business development
perspective. He has significant experience in the running of
critical operations combined with the conduct and leadership.
As COO HSBC EMEA Paul led many strategic reviews to ensure the
bank operated consistently globally across all product lines. The
area under his remit included global outsourcing, security,
disaster recovery and business continuity. Paul led the review and
delivery of balance sheet rationalization across several businesses
and many countries.
While at Starling Bank, Paul had a key role in the hiring for
the rollout of its services and the processes to support on
boarding large numbers of new employees in a start-up
environment.
Paul James commented, "I am delighted to be joining the
incredible team that Richard Shearer has put together at Tintra and
to be part of executing on this exciting mission. Having been in
financial services for a quarter of a century I am acutely aware of
the need for the product offering and solution that Tintra is
building. Having spent a number of years building business links in
Africa I look forward to bringing both my skills and my
relationships to bear as Tintra delivers on something, that if done
correctly, will truly change the way that the emerging world
banks."
Richard Shearer , Tintra's CEO, said, "Our strategic growth over
the past six months has been a really magical thing to be a part
of. Our conversations with regulators and governments stretch from
Southern Africa to South America and from Singapore to Azerbaijan,
where I was honoured last week to be welcomed to a meeting with
senior officials of their Central Bank.
These conversations reinforce on an almost daily basis the need
for the change we are building through our 3-Tier approach of
Regulation, Artificial Intelligence & Cultural Mapping.
The addition of Paul to the C-Level team brings a skillset and
experience that combines these broad geographies as we start to
execute on government and business side development as the
technology stack begins to mature.
Whether it is visiting Davos, speaking to Government officials
globally, with funding partners or commercial operators with
decades of experience like Paul, I am constantly humbled by the
support and validation that our mission receives and maybe even
more importantly validation that people are "buying what we are
selling".
Our mission is big, and our team is truly brilliant, however it
is always the best execution that wins out over ideas and concepts
alone.
We are now at that part of the curve where bringing together the
ideas, relationships and inventions into a deliverable product
during 2023 demands a highly experienced doer to sit alongside the
great thinkers already working so hard at Tintra.
Paul is the ideal fit to do this, with a deep history of
banking, experience in Africa and a strong technological
understanding, he covers all of our three verticals. I welcome him
today with much anticipation as he joins to take our mission of
using Artificial Intelligence to make Real Change to the next
level."
Mr James currently holds no shares in the Company.
