New COO for Praxis

Wednesday 10 January 2018

PraxisIFM has created a new Chief Operating Officer role as part of its plan to grow its international business.

Kevin Scott’s appointment comes after a busy period for the Channel Islands-based Group, following the acquisitions of Kompas International, Private Equity Services and RiskCo Group, and the expansion of its UK trust and corporate services offering.

Group CEO, Dr Simon Thornton, said: "We’re delighted someone with Kevin’s experience is joining us. His experience in building and managing a very successful international business will be invaluable to us and I’m looking forward to working with him."

Mr Scott has more than 20 years’ experience at senior level with well-known asset management groups.

"I am really looking forward to joining PraxisIFM and I hope to bring my experience in strategic planning, operations and relationship building to the Group at this exciting time in its development," said Mr Scott.

Mr Scott is a former international badminton player, representing Scotland and Great Britain for almost a decade before retiring from the sport in 1996. He was a board member of governing body Badminton Europe from 2011 to 2017.
