This week, Poppy Fox and Jonathan Fletcher joined the London team having worked for Brooks Macdonald for 13 years.

Like the other investment managers, they will work closely with Quilter financial advisers and direct clients.

At Quilter Cheviot’s new office in Leeds, its 14th regional office, Vanessa Eve joined the newly-formed Yorkshire team in January. She has worked for Sanlam Private Wealth and Charles Stanley.

In March, former head of Brown Shipley’s Edinburgh office, Paul Embleton, joined Quilter Cheviot.

Andrew McGlone, chief executive of Quilter Cheviot, said: “Now more than ever, we are seeing that clients want to speak directly to the person managing their portfolio, so I am delighted to welcome four experienced professionals who share a similar ethos to the rest of our investment team.

“During these extraordinary times, we are continuing to support our clients remotely but we are also taking steps to position the business as strongly as we can for a return to normality, whenever that may be. Having already invested considerably in our investment team over the last 15 months, it is very pleasing to continue attracting such talented individuals to Quilter Cheviot.”
