She has joined the network from MetLife where she spent 10 years in various positions, most recently as EMEA head of brand and integrated marketing, and where she launched the MetLife brand into the UK.
Mark Duckworth, chief executive at Openwork, said: "Claire's appointment reflects our accelerated and sustainable growth ambitions driven by the strength of our business model, our partner relationships and our brand.
"Claire’s experience and proven track record in financial services and marketing make her ideally placed to lead Openwork’s marketing and communications.
"Communicating the strength of Openwork’s proposition will be key as we look to build on the growth delivered in recent years, and I look forward to Claire’s support in achieving Openwork’s future strategic objectives."
Before MetLife, Ms Oldstein held senior management positions with the Post Office, having joined the organisation as a graduate trainee. She was also involved in founding Post Office Financial Services, the joint venture between the Post Office and Bank of Ireland.
She said: "Openwork is a leading player in financial services and I am thrilled to be joining at such an exciting time for the business."
