DUNCAN Lawrie Private Bank has announced the appointment of Gillian Ralston Jordan as head of fiduciary services in the Isle of Man.
Gillian will be responsible for a team of accountants and administrators who service the bank’s internationally diverse client base.
With more than 25 years’ experience, Jordan has previously held roles with a number of international financial services companies, including The Royal Bank of Scotland, vice president and general manager of Bank of Bermuda’s Private Client Services and as a director at Ernst & Young Trust Company. After a period of almost 13 years in the Caribbean, she relocated to the Isle of Man in September 2008 to be closer to her friends and family and was director of two trust and company service providers before joining Duncan Lawrie Private Bank. Gillian is a practising Scottish solicitor, a Notary Public in Scotland and has been a full member of The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners since 2000.
She said: ‘It is a pleasure to have joined such a strong management team. Duncan Lawrie Private Bank offers its clients a bespoke service and my broad international experience blends well with the team already based in the island so that we can continue to offer our clients a well-rounded proposition.’
Nigel Gautrey, managing director at Duncan Lawrie Private Bank, Isle of Man said:’We are experiencing real growth in the island and are highly committed to our local and international client base. We are expanding and Gillian’s legal background and work in international private client fiduciary services will be a huge asset.’
