Nest Corporation has appointed Sally Bridgeland as chair of the new Nest Invest board, subject to regulatory approval. 

The move is aimed at strengthening the board of Nest Invest Ltd, which is the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) regulated subsidiary of Nest Corporation. 

Bridgeland will provide independent oversight and help guide the investment strategy to meet the objectives set by the main board.

She is currently on the boards of the Development Bank of Wales, BelleVie, Pension Insurance Corporation, and RSA Insurance.

Bridgeland said: “I am pleased to take up the position as chair of the Nest Invest board. 

“Having been a member of Nest Corporation’s trustee board in the past, Nest’s purpose resonates deeply with me and my desire to support the underserved low- to moderate-income savers in the UK. Nest’s mission aligns closely with my own principles.
