Minch previously worked at Tilman, which was snapped up by Brewin Dolphin in 2011.

Clarke previously led the Irish wealth management arm at Investec. He moved to Brewin Dolphin last November prior to Brewin Dolphin’s takeover of the Investec unit for €44m.

The acquisition resulted in the creation of the third-largest office of Brewin Dolphin by assets with Dublin and Cork offices. It made Brewin Dolphin Ireland’s third-largest discretionary wealth manager.

Clarke will assume the new responsibility next month. The appointment awaits regulatory nod.
