Dalriada appoints Katy Vincent as Chief Operating Officer 

Dalriada Trustees (“Dalriada”), one of the UK’s leading independent professional pension trustee firms, today announces the appointment of Katy Vincent as Chief Operating Officer.

Katy brings several years of operational experience at high-profile global organisations to her new role, specialising in areas including strategic growth and business transformation.

Between 2015-2018, Katy managed the integration of a boutique law firm into EY following its acquisition.  As Director of Operations and a member of the executive board she played an instrumental role in building the firm up from start-up to exit and helped to establish it as a recognised, innovative regulated law firm. Following the acquisition by EY in 2018, Katy was Project Lead throughout the acquisition process, and subsequently joined EY’s legal managed services business as Chief Operating Officer.

At EY, Katy was responsible for managing a transformational change program which integrated employees from several global acquired entities and significantly expanded EY’s legal managed services offering. She also served as Chair of the executive board and Compliance Officer for Finance and Administration for EY’s legal managed services business.

Since August 2022, Katy has been Governor of the Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. She will be joining Dalriada’s Manchester office.

Chris Roberts, Managing Director of Dalriada, commented: “We are pleased to announce that Katy will be joining Dalriada as Chief Operating Officer.  Dalriada is a rapidly growing and developing business in a fast moving sector.  Throughout her career, Katy has demonstrated her ability to guide companies through periods of growth and operational transformation, and this experience will prove invaluable in the next phase of our growth story.  We look forward to welcoming her to Dalriada, where she will undoubtedly be a great addition to the senior team.”

Katy Vincent commented: “I am delighted to be joining one of the leading professional trustee firms in the market. Dalriada’s client-first approach to trusteeship and the diversity of the team’s collective skillset means that it provides a truly unique offering at a time when schemes are navigating an increasingly complex and challenging landscape. I am excited to begin working with stakeholders across the business as we seek to enhance our position within the professional trustee market.”
