LGT Wealth Management has announced that it will move its Manchester team to a new long-term office in Spinningfields in the middle of 2026. This shows that the company is still committed to the North West. The move will give clients and coworkers a bigger, newer, and more collaborative space.
The move is part of a bigger plan for the UK to grow. This plan has been moving faster since LGT Wealth Management bought Aberdeen’s discretionary fund management business in 2023. The deal gave the company more offices in Birmingham and Leeds and made teams in Bristol and Edinburgh stronger. It also made the company believe even more that meeting clients in person is important.
To support this momentum, LGT Wealth Management has recruited Adam Parker as a wealth manager and wealth planner in Manchester. Adam brings more than 20 years’ experience advising entrepreneurs and their families and previously worked for Evelyn Partners. His arrival complements recent senior hires across Leeds, Edinburgh and Jersey.
This growth has also been fuelled by rising demand for specialist wealth planning. Policy changes around taxation, pensions and inheritance are prompting families, business owners and entrepreneurs to reassess how they manage and pass on wealth. This has driven strong appetite for LGT Wealth Management’s bespoke and long-term approach, with the firm continuing to expand both client-facing and operational teams across the UK, including a growing presence of next-generation professionals in Birmingham and Leeds.
Andrew Davies, Partner and Head of Regions at LGT Wealth Management, comments: “Our regional growth has been buoyed by the rising demand we’ve seen for specialist wealth planning and, it’s important that families and business owners are able to access the tailored financial advice necessary to navigate this ever-changing landscape.
“Operating in one of the UK’s most dynamic regional hubs and welcoming talented people like Adam ensures we can deliver the expertise and continuity clients are looking for across generations. We are seeing wealth transfer becoming an increasingly common priority and our role is to help families approach these conversations with openness, tact, and discretion, ensuring their wealth strategies align with both their family values and their long-term financial goals.”
