Alistair has served as CEO of Fairway Group since 2022 and is now the majority owner, having been instrumental in the firm's growth since joining in 2001. In its early stages, he was a driving force behind the development of Fairway’s pension and fund administration propositions..
With deep involvement in all aspects of the Group’s operations, Alistair sits on the boards of several regulated clients. He has been integral in developing the Group’s regulated managed services capabilities for managed fund businesses (“MoMEs”) and managed trust businesses (“MTCs”), where Fairway has established one of the strongest track records in Jersey.
