The key responsibilities in this period have been to significantly grow and diversify the client base, and both broaden and deepen the service offering in response to a clear understanding of the client and market demands.During my tenure, assets under administration (AUA) have grown from $25 billion in 2007 to over $160 billion in 2021. Revenues and no. of clients serviced have more than tripled in the same period. The business has been transformed into a recognised industry leader.During this time my role and influence (both internally and externally) has expanded substantially and I have been central to developing the strategy, new product development and the resultant product and service portfolio. I have been intimately involved with the central marketing function to position Maitland in the direct and intermediary market, and the in the press, and as such have become the “face” Maitland.I am responsible for a large client portfolio as Key Account Manager (KAM) to selected strategic clients (representing almost half the AUA) and for developing the processes and procedures required to support these clients.

I was tasked with managing and turning around a recently acquired software development and infrastructure services business. My key responsibility was to stabilise the business and represent shareholder interests.My key success in this period was the ability to integrate the business into the overall Group strategy, turn the business around and ultimately grow the business. This business became, during my tenure, the most profitable division of the Group at the time. This was achieved through a combination of common sense business and people management and applying simple commercial principles which are sometime lacking in IT focused management.

FinSwitch (http://www.finswitch.com/) is a transaction switch, linking participants in the Collective Investment industry. FinSwitch provides a mechanism for the transaction flow between the Bulked Investors and Management Companies trading environment. The platform provides for transactions, confirmations, electronic price information, income distribution, total expense ratios (TER) retail institutional splits and asset allocation splits.My responsibility was to take the initiative out of project development mode and into operation and ultimately to sell the concept to the broader industry. This was successfull achieved and I was able to hand over a profitable entity to a new MD in order for me to take up a new challenge. FinSwitch is now effectively the de facto standard in the RSA industry.
