Paulette Simpson Business, Corporates, Finaciers & Entrepreneurs
NEW
2018
Executive, Corporate Affairs and
Public Policy, Jamaica National Bank;
Executive Director, The Voice Media Group
Paulette straddles two very important and influential
positions.
She is the country head for Jamaica National
Bank, where she recently oversaw the organisation’s
transition from a building society to a bank.
In addition, she heads the recently acquired Voice
Media Group and is the guiding force behind the re-
emergence of Britain’s oldest black newspaper.
Paulette has been at Jamaica National for some 15
years and has been the face of the organisation in the
UK for the majority of that time.
She is a well-known community figure and has
made sure that JN Bank, and more recently The Voice
newspaper, are at the forefront of supporting and
sponsoring community initiatives.
JN Bank contributes enormously to the Jamaican
economy with home remittances making up a sizeable
portion of its business in the UK, more than any other
country worldwide.
