Barclays has appointed Neil Wilks as senior technology officer for its central support.
Wilks moves from UBS, where he was global functional head for financial control IT for nine years.
He will work under Barclays CIO Don Trotta who said Wilks will be responsible for overseeing "IT portfolio execution" within central support.
The move comes as former Barclays CTO Kevin Lloyd is set to join rival bank Lloyds TSB as CIO later this month.
