Christo Van Der Westhuizen
Investment Administrator
London
What attracted you to a career in wealth management?
Being able to provide excellent client service and building personal relationships with clients and advisers. After completing my bachelor’s degree at the University of the Free State (South Africa), I moved to the UK and over two decades, I have gained a wide range of experience in the financial services industry. My current role is to provide support to a team of investment managers and this is perfectly suited to my personal goal of providing clients with an outstanding service.
What would you like to achieve for clients?
My main priority is to ensure a seamless, transparent, and trustworthy relationships with clients whilst supporting investment managers wherever possible. I always strive to exceed client expectations with helpful and prompt interaction of the highest standards.
What are your interests outside of work?
Outside of work, I love travelling and outdoor activities (cycling, paddle-boarding & camping). I often enjoy city breaks in Europe and make sure to travel to South Africa at least once a year.
Another hobby of mine is wood turning and I have recently qualified as an off-road driving instructor.
