CCLA / Jupiter integration update

After many years of skilled and effective leadership, Peter Hugh Smith, CCLA's Chief Executive, and Elizabeth Sheldon, CCLA’s Chief Operating Officer, will be stepping down from their roles. Andrew Robinson MBE, who has been an executive director of CCLA for 20 years, will be appointed as Executive Chair of CCLA and will report directly to Jupiter's Chief Executive.

Peter joined the group in 2019 and has been a catalyst behind the growth in that time. Liz joined in 2011 and became Chief Operating Officer in 2018. Between them, they have reshaped the business’ operating model at a time of material change for the industry and have played a critical role in leading CCLA through the integration process with the wider Jupiter Group.

Since joining CCLA in 2006, Andrew has been the driving force that has led to CCLA being embedded across the UK non-profit and local authority sectors. In his new role, he will play a key role as the public face of CCLA and will remain a trusted and visible presence across the faith, charity and local authority sectors.

Jupiter and CCLA remain committed to delivering the highest quality of client service. Relationship managers, the CCLA brand and the way in which CCLA works with its clients, will all remain the same.

The principles that make CCLA what it is, including its approach to ethical and responsible investment and its stewardship work, remain CCLA's own and will continue.
