Equilibrium Asset Management has appointed prominent UK business leader Chris Brindley MBE as Non-Executive Director.

Chris is a former Managing Director of Metro Bank and NatWest (North of England and Scotland) and was Chair of GreaterSportManchester for 10 years.

He is also a Non-Executive Director to the Rugby Football League and Chair of Olympic champion Rebecca Adlington’s SwimStars’ parent company Sporting House. He was recognised in 2017 by the Institute of Directors, as the UK’s Non-Executive Director of the Year.

Chris, who last June was awarded an MBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List for his services to sport, said: “I look forward to working closely with the Equilibrium board as the company continues to grow. My areas of passion are leadership, culture and customer service, that’s why I’m excited to be working with a firm that has already accomplished so much in these areas.”

Chris’s appointment comes after Equilibrium was recently awarded the Mark of Excellence for Client Experience from the CX Awards, and earlier this year ranked ninth in the Top 10 for The Sunday Times 100 Best Small Companies To Work For.

Colin Lawson, who founded Wilmslow-based Equilibrium more than 23 years ago, said: “Equilibrium has recently drawn up targets in our ‘Vivid Vision 2021’ which has been created to illustrate how the business will grow.

“Chris Brindley’s appointment as Non-Executive Director comes at a fitting time as we look to achieve our aim of becoming the largest and most trusted independently owned wealth management firm in Cheshire.”
