Steve Ayers
Surrey-based advisory firm AHR Private Wealth has poached its managing director from Mayfair this week, as the former head of Lloyds Private Banking steps out of the City.
Steve Ayers is set to join the firm as it launches a new UK based private client business this week.
“We look forward to seeing the business prosper under his stewardship,” executive director at the AHR group, Tyla Phillips, said.
“Steve Ayers also brings with him a wealth of expertise and a strong track record in the motivation and development of successful teams.”
With more than two decades of experience, Ayers joins as the newly launched firm looks to recruit 20 advisers over the next 12 months.
