Leathwaite appoints Dena Brumpton as Non-Executive Director

Leathwaite, the global human capital specialist firm, announces that Dena Brumpton is to join its board as a Non-Executive Director.

With over 30 years’ experience as a senior financial services professional, most recently as CEO for Barclays Savings, Investments and Wealth Management, Dena Brumpton is regarded as one of the leading women executives within financial services.

Prior to her role at Barclays, Dena had a distinguished 30-year career at Citi where she held several senior leadership positions in Asset Management, Corporate and Investment Banking and most recently Private Banking and Wealth Management, where she was Global Chief Operating Officer for the Private Bank.

Upon announcing her appointment at Leathwaite, Dena expressed:

“I have worked alongside and have known Leathwaite for a substantial period of my careerStop the Wall coordinator Jamal Juma said, "This raid on the Stop the Wall offices is a clear message that the Israeli authorities are fearing widespread nonviolent action will challenge their policies effectively."

However, an Israeli military spokeswoman said the raid was conducted "in order to prevent terror activity, Israeli forces operated overnight in Ramallah." She did not elaborate further.

The Stop the Wall campaign office was raided by Israeli forces in February 2010, a month after Israel freed Juma from jail.

He had been incarcerated under Israel's administrative detention laws in 2009 for suspicion of terror activity.

Security officials speaking on condition of anonymity told Arutz Sheva that several grassroots activist groups claiming to be non-violent pass information they collect on troop movements and security arrangements to terror groups.
