The Supervisory Board of Triodos Bank N.V. intends to appoint Suzanne Schilder (1976) as Chief Transformation Officer and Barbara van Duijn (1981) as Chief Information Officer. 0 This content is provided by an external author without editing by Finextra. It expresses the views and opinions of the author. Both new roles strengthen the Executive Board of Triodos Bank to deliver on its strategic ambitions to secure its frontrunner position in impact finance, achieve focused growth and drive an efficient and robust operating model. The Chief Transformation Officer (CTO) will be responsible for leading the optimisation of the group-wide product market portfolio and commercial footprint, with the goal to enable focused growth through disciplined strategic capital allocation and strategy implementation. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) will lead the digital transformation as a key driver of our strategy, further modernising and simplifying our IT landscape and facilitating the use of data and AI. The CIO role will replace the current role of Chief Operating Officer, which means that Nico Kronemeijer will step down. Jacco Minnaar (1971) will be reappointed as Chief Commercial Officer for a second term. The Supervisory Board will notify the Depository Receipt Holders of the intended (re)appointments at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on 26 September 2025. The convocation for this EGM will be published on 15 August 2025. The appointments will take effect after the EGM. The Works Council of Triodos Bank has advised positively on the intended (re)appointments, and the Dutch Central Bank (DNB) has approved the intended (re)appointments. Suzanne Schilder will already join Triodos Bank as of 1 September 2025 as a special advisor to the Executive Board, allowing for her onboarding. Barbara van Duijn currently works for Triodos Bank as Group Director Digital and Technology and will now also act as a special advisor until her appointment. Mike Nawas, Chair of the Supervisory Board: 'The Supervisory Board is proud to complement the Executive Board with the intended CTO and CIO candidates, in two new roles in the Executive Board. Suzanne brings a wealth of experience in banking strategy and transformation. Barbara is a modern and versatile IT leader and a candidate from within our organisation, reflecting the depth of internal leadership potential at Triodos Bank. We are convinced they are the right persons to drive the newly created CTO and CIO agenda with the energy, pace and customer centric growth mindset that is required to continue to deliver on our mission. Furthermore, we are pleased to reappoint Jacco Minnaar and trust that he will continue driving the commercial agenda in our focused growth strategy. We also would like to thank Nico Kronemeijer for his enormous contribution and dedication to Triodos Bank over the last 12 years and wish him all the best for the future.' Chief Transformation Officer Suzanne Schilder is an experienced banker and strategic change leader with a proven track record across a broad range of transformations. Previously, she worked as Partner at Beaufort Consulting where she advised companies on restructuring and transformational strategies. Prior to that, she held several senior leadership positions at ABN AMRO Bank, amongst others in shaping and executing strategic and financial restructuring initiatives. She brings a highly valuable skill set, which she will apply to the development and implementation of Triodos Bank's strategy. Her experience straddles the full spectrum of business performance optimisation within banking and beyond, ranging from initiating new initiatives and leading turnarounds to executing loan portfolio and M&A transactions, always with a strong focus on the human dimension. Suzanne Schilder: 'I am very excited to join Triodos Bank. Throughout my career, I have come to understand that I want to make meaningful impact and give back to the community. This is possible at Triodos Bank, where I can combine my experience in all kinds of transformations within the banking sector with the mission of a sustainable bank. I am very much looking forward to supporting Triodos Bank in navigating the next phase of its journey.' Chief Information Officer Barbara van Duijn has extensive experience in IT leadership, particularly in digital transformation and innovation. Her background includes senior positions focusing on IT change and customer experience in the financial and telecom industry. She joined Triodos Bank in 2015 and has led major projects, most recently in her role as Group Director Digital and Technology. Notable achievements include launching the Personal Current Account for our UK business, overseeing and implementing the digital strategy across multiple countries, and most recently successfully leading and executing the settlement offer roll out for Depository Receipt Holders. Barbara van Duijn: 'I feel honoured and proud to step into my new role within Triodos Bank to shape and implement the CIO agenda and speed up the strategic ambitions of the bank. With this new role Triodos Bank recognises the importance of the digital transformation in the focused growth strategy where technology investments align with business and impact priorities. I am looking forward to contributing to this ambition and to show how technology can be used as a force for good to realise positive impact.'
