Commenting on Steve’s appointment, Crestbridge FOS CEO Heather Tibbo said: “Since establishing the business in 2013, our vision has always been to set new standards of technical expertise and service excellence within our discipline. A senior executive team that can clearly demonstrate those qualities is absolutely critical, and for that reason I’m delighted to welcome someone of Steve’s calibre to the business. The experience and knowledge he has gained throughout his career, together with his proven ability to lead and develop teams and his belief in the importance of client service, will be invaluable – as we continue to support our clients with their wealth planning needs and pursue our bold and ambitious growth plans.”
Steve Le Seelleur added: “Crestbridge Family Office Services has earned a fantastic reputation in the trust, family office and UHNW private client space, and that is thanks to the quality of its people and the emphasis it places on service quality. It’s a privilege to be joining a business that shares my own values, that demonstrates such a positive people culture, and that has a really high-end portfolio of global clients. I’m looking forward to working closely with Heather and Steve, as well as my colleagues right across the business, to help us achieve our collective goals.”
