Bentley Reid, the employee-owned wealth manager, has promoted Kevin Andrews to Chief Operating Officer. Andrews joined the firm as head of IT and Operations in December 2023.
Prior to Bentley Reid, Andrews has spent his career in a variety of roles at C. Hoare & Co. and Arbuthnot Latham. Since joining the firm, Andrews has led on driving enterprise-wide transformation and shaping the firm’s operational strategy.
Peter Clark, Chief Executive of Bentley Reid, said: “We are delighted to begin 2026 with the promotion of Kevin to Chief Operating Officer. Since joining Bentley Reid, Kevin has made a significant contribution to the firm, strengthening our operational capability and becoming a valued member of the senior management team. In his new role, he will play a key part in supporting our growth strategy and ensuring we continue to deliver a high-quality service to our clients.”
Andrews added: “I am pleased to take on the role of Chief Operating Officer at Bentley Reid. Since joining the firm, I have been impressed by its strong client-focused culture and collaborative approach. I look forward to continuing to support the business as it builds on its reputation for high-quality wealth management and delivers its long-term strategic objectives.”
This comes several weeks after Bentley Reid opened its Dubai office after it was granted a Category 4 regulatory licence by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA).
