about me

Dame Alison Rose joined Charterhouse in 2024 as a Senior Partner. She sits on the Executive Committee, Investment Committee and Portfolio Committee.

Alison previously served as CEO of NatWest Group, a major retail and commercial bank until 2023. During her tenure at NatWest, she was invited by the UK Government to lead a review of the barriers to women starting business and authored The Rose Review in March 2019. This led to the establishment of the UK’s Investing In Women Code which now has over 200 signatories. This ecosystem wide effort has led to the UK tripling the number of women business start-ups from 50,000 per year in 2019 to 150,000 in 2022. Alison chaired the Rose Review board and the review was updated annually to detail good progress on female entrepreneurship. This initiative was introduced to We-Fi by the Financial Alliance For Women and is currently being rolled out in 28 countries.

Throughout her career, Alison has been a strong ambassador for diversity and the progression of women and female entrepreneurs. During her time at NatWest, she championed the firm’s entrepreneur accelerator programme by establishing 14 free accelerator hubs across the UK, and providing an extensive programme to support entrepreneurs. She was appointed Dame Commander (DBE) in 2023 New Year Honours for services to the financial services sector.

Alison holds a degree in History from Durham University and received an honorary degree from Durham University and University of York.
