The ideal candidate will have a strong trust and corporate administration background with experience managing client relationships and complex ownership structures. Previous fiduciary experience is essential, alongside a good understanding of compliance, governance and regulatory requirements. Candidates should demonstrate strong organisational and leadership skills, with the ability to manage workloads, delegate effectively and support the development of team members. Experience reviewing contractual agreements and managing stakeholder relationships is highly desirable. Knowledge of yacht ownership structures would be advantageous but is not essential, as broader fiduciary expertise is considered equally valuable.
