It’s called ‘experience’. And that’s what Chris Dixon and Martin Rankin at Allied Irish Bank (GB) in Newcastle have got by the bucketload.

Chris is Senior Relationship Manager at Allied Irish Bank (GB) and fronts the team at their offices in Broad Chare, just off the Quayside in Newcastle. Martin is part of his team and between them, Chris and Martin have over 40 years’ combined experience in the North East. This means they have both an extensive knowledge of the region’s economy and key players, as well as access to the wealth of sector-specific insights that Allied Irish Bank (GB) have.
