• Dave Price to step up to become Midlands Branch Head
• Matt Noyce joins as a Client Advisor in Dorset
UBS Global Wealth Management has today announced a number of changes in its UK regional offices. Dave Price has been named new Branch Head in its Midlands office, while Matt Noyce has joined the South, South West and Wales team to bolster UBS Global Wealth Management’s presence in the Dorset region.
Dave has been a Client Advisor at UBS Wealth Management in Birmingham for six years, having joined from Credit Suisse in 2012. He will succeed Phillip Wood, who oversaw the significant growth of the Midlands Office. Phillip has taken the decision to focus his time on clients after ten years leading the Midlands office. He will also support regional Client Advisors in covering existing and future clients in the High Net Worth (HNW) segment. Dave has worked closely as Phillip's deputy for the last four years.
Andy Jackson will become deputy Branch Head. Andy joined UBS Wealth Management last year from Coutts, following several years running a private investment office.
Nick Tucker, Head of UK Domestic at UBS Global Wealth Management, said,
“We would like to thank Phillip for his tireless work over the past decade in raising our business to its current standing in the Midlands region. During this time, he has not only overseen a tenfold growth in the office’s invested assets, but also led a team which has regularly topped our client satisfaction surveys. We are confident that with Dave at the helm, the region will continue to flourish.”
Meanwhile, UBS Global Wealth Management continues its UK-wide expansion with the hire of Matt Noyce as a Client Advisor in its South, South West and Wales team. Matt will lead business development in Dorset and surrounding area.
Matt has been advising clients for over 15 years, both in the UK and Middle East. He has spent the last 10 years as a Director at Coutts, with a particular focus on developing client relationships in Dorset and the surrounding region. He is a Chartered Wealth Manager and specialises in investments, lending, and next generation planning.
Jonathan Brown, Head of UK Regions at UBS Global Wealth Management, commented,
“We are delighted to welcome Matt to the UBS Global Wealth Management team, as we continue our commitment to helping clients across the whole of the UK reach their financial goals. We already have the largest regional footprint of any global wealth manager, but quality appointments like Matt will help us to broaden and deepen our offer.”
UBS Global Wealth Management has hired six new staff outside of London since the start of 2018, to service growing client demand in the regions.
