Quilter PLC, a leading provider of advice, investments, and wealth management in the UK and internationally, engaged Broadgate Search to support a significant organisational restructure. This involved separating from their parent company, Old Mutual PLC, and listing independently on the London Stock Exchange. To overhaul Quilter's risk and compliance framework, Broadgate Search built internal teams capable of establishing robust risk management, reducing reliance on external resources. This included strengthening the second line of defense and enhancing risk activities within individual entities and the first line of defense. We successfully placed numerous candidates across the group and its subsidiaries, including Intrinsic FS, Old Mutual Global Investors, and Quilter Cheviot, with up to 11 concurrent contractors on-site supporting this transformation.

We placed a range of project-critical interim roles, including a Head of Operational Risk, Head of Compliance Monitoring, Operational Risk Manager, Data Protection SME, and IT Risk Manager.
