Hodge Bank appoints chief technology officer

Hodge Bank has strengthened its team with the appointment of Scott Hill as its new chief technology officer (CTO). 

Hill will lead the bank’s technology strategy and digital transformation, supporting the focus on customer experience.

Hill joins Hodge Bank after holding senior technology leadership roles at IBM, Accenture, Dyson, Diageo, Versace and Target Group, where he worked on digital transformation.

Hill said: “I’m excited to be joining Hodge Bank as its new Chief Technology Officer (CTO). I’ve been following the impressive work this team has done, and I’m eager to build on that success.

“On a personal note, I’m a proud Welshman, born and raised in Maesteg. I’ve always believed the values 

“I learned growing up – integrity, trust, and resilience – are just as important in the world of technology as they are in life.”

Hill added: “My career has taken me through some of the biggest names in the tech world, from global leaders like IBM and Accenture, where I honed my skills in strategic technology delivery and innovation. 

“I’ve also had the privilege of leading digital transformation projects for major brands such as Dyson, Diageo, and Versace, helping them navigate the complexities of modern digital change. 

“These experiences have taught me a fundamental principle, one that aligns perfectly with the culture at Hodge Bank: to focus on the moments that matter.”

He said: “It’s at these critical junctures where the right technology and strategic decisions can not only solve problems but also create new opportunities and drive real business growth and more importantly create positive outcomes for customers.”
