The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment (CISI) is delighted to announce the appointment of Rosie Glazebrook, Susan Daniel MCSI and Nicholas (Nick) Garnish, Chartered MCSI to the Board.
The CISI operates under a best-practice governance model overseen by the Board of Trustees. The Board comprises non-executive directors who are typically employed in senior positions in firms operating in the financial services sector. Board members are either elected for a term of three years by ballot of the membership at the Annual General Meeting or appointed by the Board.
Rosie (left) is a senior independent director at Make UK, where she also chairs the Nominations and Remuneration Committee.
Her background as an independent chair and non-executive director has enabled her to support organisations in strengthening their governance, developing partnerships and leveraging their impact internationally. She also has experience driving trade and investment initiatives with private sector and government partners.
Rosie recently joined the Advisory Board of the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council, where she served as chief executive until June 2025, driving trade and investment initiatives with private sector and government partners, including the City of London and professional bodies.
Previous non-executive director board positions include the Food Standards Agency, General Optical Council, Book Aid International and health and regulatory organisations, following a career in commercial roles in publishing and media.
Rosie has a strong interest in standards, regulation and ethics.

She also played a key role in OIA’s integration of state-owned enterprises and engagement with the International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds.
Susan was also one of the advisory partners at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), leading large advisory projects for the Oman government and other clients in the Middle East and North Africa region. As a partner of PwC, Susan was one of the founding members of the current Gulf Corporation Council Board Directors Institute and she led the topic on board committees, internal audit and risk management.
Susan is also active in the event space, attending Q&A sessions on topics relating to risk management, governance, compliance, internal audit and fraud risks.

He is a Chartered member of the CISI, a Fellow and Chartered Manager of the Chartered Management Institute, and a Court member of the Worshipful Company of Bakers.
