Affinity Appoints Elizabeth Shaw as Group Director as Part of Succession Plan

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Elizabeth Shaw as Group Director of Affinity Private Wealth. Since joining the firm three years ago, Elizabeth has been instrumental in helping manage the trust client facing team whilst delivering exceptional client service to her portfolio.

Elizabeth’s legal background and expertise has introduced a fresh dynamic to the team, enriching our understanding of complex client matters and governance while deepening the collective experience of our leadership. She has quickly built strong relationships with key clients and colleagues alike, embodying Affinity’s collaborative culture and client first ethos.

This appointment, coupled with Elizabeth becoming a shareholder in 2024, is a visible milestone in our succession plan. It reflects the strength of our leadership pipeline and demonstrates the progress of our commitment to remaining independent.

In her expanded role, Elizabeth will continue to focus on key client relationships, mentor her direct reports, and help maintain the sustainability focus of the trust company, ensuring we deliver long‑term value for clients, our people, and the communities we serve.

Congratulations Elizabeth!
