Cushon appoints former NOW:Pensions CEO as Managing Director
Cushon, the workplace savings Fintech business, has appointed Troy Clutterbuck as Managing Director. He was previously CFO and then CEO at Now:Pensions and prior to this was CFO at JLT Employee Benefits where he worked alongside Duncan Howorth who is now Chairman at Cushon.
Focused on the workplace, Cushon supports companies with their financial wellbeing programmes and helps employees save into workplace ISAs with the convenience of payroll deduction. Over 100 large UK corporates promote Cushon to their employees as a more engaging way to save, appealing to millennials who are focused on saving for their first home and for higher earners impacted by reduced annual and lifetime pension allowances.
We need more engaging propositions to turn the UK into a nation of savers and to help employers get a better return on investment with their spend on workplace savings and pensions. Innovation is essential and Cushon’s focus of promoting healthy savings habits via people’s employers brings financial wellbeing support to the mass market via the workplace.
Troy Clutterbuck
We believe the workplace market needs more innovation and rounded savings propositions for short, mid and long term savings. We have ambitious plans to disrupt the status quo in workplace savings and we’re building a team to take us on that journey.
Phil Hollingdale, Co-Founder of Cushon
I am delighted to welcome Troy to the team as Managing Director and look forward to working with him to achieve our ambitious future plans.
Ben Pollard, Founder and CEO of Cushon

Most of us have that nagging feeling that we should be doing more. Knowing the right things to do for the sake of our long-term financial wellbeing is one thing, doing it is another.

Winning at fintech
Fintech has become synonymous with brilliant, new and engaging financial products and concepts. The term has only, and could only have, existed after the start of the twenty-first century since the internet became not only a ‘nice to have’ but an essential part of daily life. But if the ‘tech’ in fintech is to serve its purpose, it needs to be user friendly to drive engagement and use.

Could robo-guidance engage employees?
Let’s face it robo-advice exists because face to face advice is expensive and the majority of the population won’t pay for it. Generally people won’t pay for goods or services that either have no perceived value or the cost exceeds the perceived value. In the financial services industry, I would argue the issue is the former; the majority of people perceive that they simply don’t need advice.
