Amy Bryant, who joined Jersey Finance in 2011, will take on the new role, which will involve extending her current responsibilities as COO and Head of Strategic Projects.
A qualified Chartered Tax Advisor and Chartered Accountant, Amy previously held a role at PwC as a Tax Manager. There, she specialised in the taxation of offshore funds and corporate vehicles.
CEO of Jersey Finance Geoff Cook claimed that Amy’s appointment to the new role was “fully deserved.”
He added: “Amy moving into this role reflects the importance to the organisation of having clarity around leadership and representation in the absence of the CEO as well as a strong, robust internal operational capability… Amy’s considerable experience at Jersey Finance and her understanding of all corners of Jersey’s finance industry will ensure that Jersey Finance can call on the highest calibre of leadership as we continue to represent and help grow the Island’s finance industry.”
