Our mission is to be the trusted investment manager of choice for private clients and their advisers, by offering a consistently outstanding quality of service delivered on a personal basis, by enthused and inspired individuals.

The best way to achieve this is by having a motivated and engaged workforce who have a variety of experience, skills and backgrounds. It means creating opportunities for individuals in all areas of the business to realise their potential, and linking our talent management strategy with our recruitment and reward processes.

We want to foster a culture of continuous improvement, remaining at the forefront of Professionalism and innovation within our sector.

Our Investment Management Trainee programme, which was launched in 2018, has proven a great success in broadening our candidate pool and provides us with a pipeline of talent for entry level roles within the business.

• set targets and implement the right strategy for their organisations to achieve those targets; and
• publicly report on progress to deliver against their targets to support the transparency and accountability needed to drive change. Our current gender ratio for the entire workforce is 60:40 in favour of men.
