Alexforbes Offshore appoints new Managing Director

Peter (pictured) currently serves as Managing Director of Alexforbes Investments in Jersey and brings deep experience within the group, having been with the business for 13 years.

The appointment follows the planned retirement of Adrian Peacock, who will step down as Managing Director on 31 March 2026 after 19 years with Alexander Forbes Offshore, including seven and a half years in the role.

Dawie de Villiers Group CEO said: “Peter’s appointment reflects the strength and depth of leadership in our Jersey business and ensures continuity for our clients. His experience and deep understanding of the market position him well to lead the business into its next phase. I would also like to thank Adrian for his commitment to Alexforbes Offshore and dedication to our clients’ financial wellbeing.”

Reflecting on his tenure, Adrian said: “It has been a privilege and honour to lead the Jersey business and to build and work alongside a committed and capable team. I am grateful to our clients for the trust they have placed in us over the years, and for the support of colleagues across the Alexforbes group. Over the past two decades, the business has grown and evolved to keep pace with change and to remain relevant to our clients’ changing needs. I am confident that it is extremely well positioned for the future and will continue to build on this solid foundation. I am delighted to be handing over to Peter and wish him every success as he takes the business forward.”

Peter commented: “I look forward to building on the success established by Adrian and the team. Our focus remains on delivering consistent, high-quality outcomes for our clients while continuing to evolve our offering in line with their needs. Jersey remains an important market for the group, and we are well positioned for continued growth.”
