London-headquartered Quilter Cheviot has made a hire at its Jersey team, appointing Lee Morris to the position of investment director. His arrival is part of a drive by the company to develop its offering in international markets.

“The appointment of Lee will help strengthen what is an already an exceptionally robust team here in Jersey and help us to grow our client base,” said Childe.

The Jersey team of Quilter Cheviot manages assets on behalf of private clients, trusts and professional intermediaries in the Channel Islands, the UK and Dubai.
