Dean Blackburn

Listed fiduciary and corporate services provider JTC have appointed its chief commercial officer, Dean Blackburn, to the company's board in recognition of the role he has played in JTC’s growth since joining at the start of 2019.

In his expanded role, Mr Blackburn will continue to work closely with chief executive Nigel Le Quesne, and further his work with the heads of institutional client services and private client services.

He will also continue to lead the JTC’s global banking and treasury functions in addition to overseeing the firm’s complementary client service lines.

Mr Le Quesne said: “Dean Blackburn’s appointment to the Group Holdings Board is integral for JTC, most notably given his ability to enable the strategic growth plan. He has shown his capability to make a clear difference and I have no doubt that he will continue to make every success of this significant appointment.”

These changes will take effect immediately.

Last month, JTC bought perfORM Due Diligence Services, a provider of due diligence services to UK and international asset allocators and investment managers.
