Quilter has expanded its responsible investment team within its affluent division, with the confirmation of Ido Eisenberg as the head of responsible investment and two new hires. Maggie Jou and Roz Yazdan.
Eisenberg (pictured) is appointed after a a successful interim tenure and brings over 20 years of experience in asset management, investment and sustainability, including at JP Morgan Asset Management and more recently as a director at Deloitte, where he led the asset and wealth management ESG Risk advisory team within the sustainable finance group.
Joining Eisenberg’s team are two new hires. Maggie Jou has been appointed RI reporting & implementation manager, joining from Deloitte, where she also worked in the sustainable finance team. Jou will be responsible for the regulatory reporting required of the business and ensuring consistency, accuracy and efficiency across Quilter’s sustainable reporting obligations.
Meanwhile, Roz Yazdan will join as an ESG Analyst. Yazdan has over five years of experience in ESG integration and stewardship, most recently at MainStreet Partners where she worked on product development in the sustainable and responsible investment space.
In addition to these new hires, Quilter has promoted two existing members of the team. Nikki Williamson has been promoted to integration and stewardship lead, recognising her continued contributions to embedding ESG considerations into investment processes and leading engagement initiatives. And Will Miller has been promoted to responsible investment data lead, where he will oversee the use of data analytics to support investment decision-making and reporting.
The team works across the multi-asset, platform and advice businesses that make up Quilter’s affluent division. They work especially closely with the WealthSelect Managed Portfolio Service team to support the responsible and sustainable ranges, which are run by portfolio managers Stuart Clark, Helen Bradshaw and Bethan Dixon.
