During her two years in the role, Savage was responsible for a team of 20 staff worldwide, charged with communicating to Barclays’ 77,000 employees.
Barclays comms director Leigh Bruce, to whom the post reports, said: ‘The role is a critical part of executing strategy and making sure people are committed to it. We are growing through acquisitions so there is going to be an even bigger challenge for our internal communications arm in the future.’
