Fair for You appoints new Non-Executive Director

Social lender Fair for You has announced the appointment of Kumaran Adithyan as a Non-Executive Board Director.

Adithyan is currently General Manager, Global Electronics and Home at online marketplace and commerce platform eBay. He has been at eBay since 2017, and previously worked at Walgreens Boots Alliance, the owner of health and beauty retailer Boots. He began his career at management consultancy Oliver Wyman.

Fair for You supports customers unable to access mainstream finance to purchase essential items from a range of retail partners, including Iceland, Argos, Dunelm and Euronics.

Simon Dukes, Chief Executive of Fair for You, said “Kumaran’s expertise and experience make him an invaluable addition to the board of Fair for You. We are delighted to welcome him to the team. Having unveiled a rebrand and an innovative new Shopping Card loan in recent months, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for Fair for You, as we seek to support as many financially-excluded and low-income households as possible.”
