The incoming CEO has had a 29-year career at HSBC, serving in several senior leadership roles and overseeing key developments within the group.

After 31 years with the business, Andrew McGlone (pictured below) will be stepping down from his role as chief executive of Quilter Cheviot later this year in order to pursue other opportunities.

Following an extensive market search, Quilter has announced that John Goddard (main picture) will join the business in September 2025 as chief executive of Quilter Cheviot, the firm said in a statement.

Goddard has extensive experience and a strong track record in driving strategic growth initiatives across multiple businesses and jurisdictions. During his 29-year career at HSBC, he served in several senior leadership roles, overseeing key developments within the Group.

In the meantime, Goddard and McGlone will work together to manage a smooth transition of responsibilities.

“Having positioned Quilter Cheviot as a leading integrated wealth management firm within the high net worth market, now is an appropriate moment to hand over to my successor to drive the next stage of our growth agenda,” McGlone said.

“I would like to thank Andrew for his significant contribution to Quilter over his long and successful career with Quilter Cheviot,” Steven Levin, Quilter CEO said. “Under Andrew’s leadership QC has evolved over recent years, adapting to changes in the DFM sector and the business is now in a good position to build on these foundations and deliver further growth in the years ahead.”

Quilter Cheviot is a discretionary fund management and financial planning business.
