CCW Trust Limited is delighted to announce the appointment of Diane Clarke as fiduciary lead of its trust, corporate and family office division.

Diane is a Chartered Secretary and brings more than 25 years’ experience of the Manx trust and corporate sector to the firm, the fiduciary services arm of accountancy firm Crowe Clark Whitehill, after working for some of the island’s leaders in the field, including Barclays, HSBC and First Names Group.

Of her new post, which she took up in early December, she said: ‘I am excited to have become part of a trusted and respected firm that has a strong sense of team spirit, values its clients and is looking to expand. Together with my team of experienced professionals, I am looking forward to making my contribution to that expansion.’

Away from the office Manx-born Diane, who is married with three children, spends much of her time supporting and acting as ‘chauffeur’ to her 10-year-old tennis-star-in-the-making daughter, Charlotte.

Director Phaedra Bird said: ‘Diane joins us as we approach a new year, one which will undoubtedly bring new challenges and opportunities. Her wealth of external experience and her commitment to service excellence, which all of us at CCW Trust share, will prove invaluable as we seize new opportunities together to develop the business and deliver an exceptional client experience.’
