Lumb, who previously worked at Franklin Templeton, has been appointed to the new Quilter Cheviot Leeds office.
Both hires will report to Quilter Cheviot managing director Michelle Andrews and focus on developing long-term strategic relationships with financial advisers and their clients.
They will work closely with Quilter Cheviot’s investment management team and offer support around regulatory and business challenges.
Quilter Cheviot chief executive Andrew McGlone said: “Our highly experienced business development team has been working proudly alongside financial adviser firms for over 25 years and we are delighted to bring in further expertise to help bolster this commitment.
“We are in a growth period and are focused on hiring highly qualified individuals with significant experience in the wealth management industry and we believe Marshall and Nick will be great additions to the team.
“Our two most recent hires as well as the wider team understand the complex environment that advisers operate in today and we remain dedicated to working with firms to achieve the right outcomes for their clients.”
In 2019, the Dubai office of Quilter Cheviot secured a Category 4 licence to advise and on-board clients and service relationships on the ground.
In 2017, the firm agreed to acquire discretionary investment management business Attivo Investment Management for an undisclosed sum.
