The States Employment Board has also permitted Andrew McLaughlin to undertake a non-executive role as Chair of the Board of the Bank of Gibraltar.
According to the Chief Minister, Dr McLaughlin has provided 'clear leadership' across Jersey's public service, ensuring good governance, sound financial control and a collaborative approach to management.

Andrew McLaughlin began the role as interim CEO in September 2023, picking up after the shock resignation of Suzanne Wylie in the spring after just a year in office.
The government at the time claimed she was moving back to Belfast to be 'closer to her family'.
Dr McLaughlin, the former CEO of Royal Bank of Scotland International, sought secondment from his position at NatWest London until May of this year.
He has held several advisory and non-executive roles, including Chair of Prince’s Trust Scotland, member of the CBI Economics and Tax Committee and of the Fiscal Policy Panel for the States of Guernsey.
He has also been a visiting professor at the Centre for Globalisation at the University of Nottingham and has a first-class degree in Economics and Politics and a PhD in Public Policy.
