Andrew takes the reins as the business seeks to continue its growth. Ross Trustees’ multi-disciplinary and diverse team now numbers more than 55 specialists who work with over 130 pension schemes with combined assets under management of £48bn. A key driver of the firm’s recent growth has been the ability of its team to provide a wide range of high-quality services to meet evolving client demand. These include pensions manager, secretarial, governance, analytics and project management, in addition to its professional trustee offering.
Nigel will remain on the board and continue a successful five-year association with Ross Trustees, having joined as Chief Operating Officer in 2017 before becoming Chief Executive Officer in April 2019. Nigel led the business through its management buyout with LDC in 2020.
Andrew Bradshaw, new Chief Executive Officer of Ross Trustees, said: “I’m hugely excited to lead Ross Trustees at a time of unprecedented challenges for occupational pension schemes. The entire team has built a fantastic business based on collaboration, innovation and exceptional service and I feel privileged to lead such a dynamic and diverse group of professionals.
Our growth is driven by long-term relationships that evolve continually and always in line with our clients’ needs. The last 12 months have seen Ross Trustees attract high-profile brands, complex schemes and industry-leading talent to the business. This growth leaves us well positioned to help clients deliver on their commitments to scheme members by tackling regulatory complexity, economic uncertainty and increasing governance requirements head-on.
“Nigel’s leadership has consolidated and strengthened our position at the forefront of the professional trustee services market. I would like to thank him for his significant contribution to the success of Ross Trustees and I look forward to continuing this work with him and the board.”
Nigel Moore, Vice Chairman of Ross Trustees, said: “It has been an honour to lead Ross Trustees over the past three years. The business has achieved a great deal over this period, which has only been accomplished due to the depth of the team and the strength of the relationships we hold with our clients. The completion of the management buyout in 2020 was a significant milestone for the business and its success is testament to the confidence that our investors have in the market and our place in it. I look forward to playing an active role in the ongoing management of the business and in continuing to serve our clients. I wish Andrew every success in his new position.”
