JANE Goodship has been appointed as branch manager of Barclays in Bury St Edmunds.

She has held a variety of roles in branches, training and recruitment and financial services centres at the bank since joining in 1978.

She has worked across East Anglia, including Norwich and Cambridge, and recently left Princes Street, Ipswich, where she was branch manager for three years.

Taking over the Bury branch was like “coming home”, said Ms Goodship, who lived in the town from the age of 10.

“I have a great love for it. Knowing so many people and so much about the area, I am going to make sure that the Barclays branch becomes part of the community,” she said.
