The provider of trust, corporate and fund services has made a senior appointment in the Isle of Man.

ZEDRA has appointed Andrew Wilson as associate director of marine and aviation.

Wilson previously worked at the Equiom Group, where he provided support for marine and aviation new business and tax compliance.

Based in the firm’s Isle of Man office, Wilson will focus on the development and growth of the firm’s global marine and aviation division, helping to strengthen existing operations while expanding business opportunities.

“Having previously worked for an expanding multi-jurisdiction corporate service provider and with broad knowledge and practical application of offshore and EU legislation, as well as most favourable importation routes for yachts and aircraft, Andrew’s background will add great value to our client portfolio,” said Alan Patrick, managing director of ZEDRA (Isle of Man).

Wilson's appointment follows that of John Hunter, who joined the firm last month as director for business development.

ZEDRA was launched at the start of this year when an independent investor group acquired a majority shareholding in the business from Barclays. It operates in 10 international locations, including a recently opened office in Hong Kong.
