He was one of a handful of top Lehman executives offered a job at Barclays after the British bank bought Lehman's U.S. operations when Lehman declared bankruptcy in September 2008.

On June 12, 2008, Lehman chief operating officer Joseph M. Gregory and CFO Erin Callan were removed from their positions shortly after it was announced Lehman would post an unexpectedly large second-quarter loss of nearly $3 billion. Ian Lowitt, formerly chief administrative officer, was named the new CFO. Both Gregory and Callan would remain at the investment bank in other jobs.
