Jupiter is pleased to announce the appointment of Nichola Pease
as Non-Executive Chairman of the Company, with effect from 2 March
2020. Nichola will succeed the current Chairman, Liz Airey, who
will step down from the Board on the same date.
Liz has been a Non-Executive Director of Jupiter since May 2010
and was appointed Chairman in September 2014. In recognition of the
revised provisions of the 2018 Corporate Governance Code, the
Company has undertaken a thorough search to identify and appoint
her successor, led by Jonathon Bond, the Company's Senior
Independent Director.
Nichola is a leading figure in asset management with over 30
years' experience in the industry and the wider financial services
sector. She was the Chief Executive and subsequently Deputy
Chairman of J O Hambro Capital Management Ltd from 1998 until 2008,
following which she held a number of roles in the charity and
public sectors.
Nichola served as a Non-Executive Director of Schroders plc from
September 2012 to November 2019. She was also chair of the
Remuneration Committee and a member of the Audit and Risk Committee
and Nomination Committee.
Jonathon Bond, Senior Independent Director of Jupiter,
commented: "I am very pleased to announce the appointment of
Nichola. She is an outstanding successor to our outgoing Chairman
and brings significant relevant experience to the Board. At a time
when Jupiter is moving forward under new leadership and with a
refreshed plan to grow the business, Nichola's industry expertise
will prove invaluable.
"I would like to take this opportunity to express the Board's
gratitude to Liz Airey. We have benefitted immensely from her long
and successful stewardship, during which the Company has grown
significantly while also navigating a rapidly evolving market
environment. We wish her all the very best for the future."
Nichola Pease added: "Jupiter is an exceptional firm with a
high-quality team and an ambitious strategy to build the business
over the next five years. I look forward to joining the Board at a
very exciting time for the business."
