Rothschild & Co Wealth Management au Royaume-Uni renforce sa présence régionale avec trois nouvelles nominations (en anglais uniquement)

Rothschild & Co Wealth Management UK has made three key Client Adviser hires to its established Regional Team in Leeds and Manchester to support growing demand for its services in the UK regions.

Edward Binks joins the business in Leeds as a Director, alongside Alison Probert who in 2022 set up and heads Rothschild & Co’s Leeds Wealth Management office. His appointment follows those of Tom Fleming and Jessica Pearson, both of whom recently joined as Assistant Directors, Tom based in Leeds and Jessica in Manchester.

Rothschild & Co’s UK Wealth Management business has grown significantly over the last decade, working closely with individuals, families and entrepreneurs with substantial assets across the UK. Peter Hindle joined Rothschild & Co in 2015 and founded the UK Wealth Management Regional Team in Manchester. With subsequent office openings in Birmingham in 2021 and Leeds in 2022, the integrated regional team now totals more than 20 people.

In addition to the wider professional community, Rothschild & Co Wealth Management works closely with the Rothschild & Co Global Advisory business, established in Manchester for 60 years and Leeds and Birmingham for more than 20 years. As Global Advisory colleagues guide business owners and shareholders through the successful sale of their companies, the Wealth Management team advises clients on how best to protect and grow the proceeds for their families’ security, through long-term investment and wealth planning strategies.

Helen Watson, CEO of Rothschild & Co Wealth Management UK, said: “Rothschild & Co has many historical links with the rich history of manufacturing and engineering businesses in the North of England dating back to when Nathan Mayer Rothschild first came to Manchester to set up a textiles business in 1799. Since opening our Wealth Management office on the ground in Manchester in 2015, followed by Leeds and Birmingham, we have enjoyed deepening these strong local connections beyond our London head office. We continue to invest in our business and recruit highly skilled and connected individuals to support our clients’ investment management and wealth planning needs.”

Peter Hindle, Head of the UK Regions, Rothschild & Co Wealth Management, said: “I am thrilled that Ed, Tom and Jess have chosen to join our growing business. Using their local knowledge and strong networks, they will work collaboratively and across teams, providing an exceptional service to the entrepreneurs and families we work with, ensuring their best interests are met with our differentiated investment approach. These appointments will also enhance our focus on working alongside professional advisers, including leading lawyers, accountants and other consultants, in meeting their clients’ needs even more effectively.”

Edward Binks joins with immediate effect from James Hambros, where he has worked since 2021 advising private clients. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 2006, working initially for KPMG and later qualifying as a Chartered Financial Analyst in 2010 while at Newton Investment Management. He also spent seven years at Aberdeen Standard Capital, the last 18 months as Private Client Head of the Leeds office.

Tom Fleming has more than eight years’ experience advising private clients, corporates, charities and trusts on suitable investment strategies to meet their long-term needs, most recently for Brown Shipley. Based in Leeds, he works closely with successful entrepreneurs and family business owners across Yorkshire and the North East and joined Rothschild & Co in February 2025.

Jessica Pearson began her career in 2017 at Evelyn Partners in Belfast, where she spent five years advising private clients and families across Northern Ireland, achieving her CISI Chartered Wealth Manager qualification in 2019. After returning to Manchester in 2022, she worked as part of Investec's Portfolio Management team before joining Rothschild & Co in March 2025.
 
Rothschild & Co has invested significantly in its UK Wealth Management business which has resulted in AUM doubling in the last five years. In addition to its London Head office and UK regional offices in Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester, Rothschild & Co’s UK Wealth Management team also has an office in Guernsey, where it has operated since 1967.
