Praxis Appoints Luke Cornish as Client Services Director in Jersey

Independent private wealth and corporate services provider Praxis has appointed client relationship specialist Luke Cornish as Client Services Director, further strengthening its Jersey platform for complex, cross-border private wealth structures in an increasingly demanding regulatory and multi-jurisdictional environment.

Luke brings 20 years’ experience across banking, trust and company administration. He specialises in overseeing high-value, sophisticated structures and international asset portfolios, working closely with clients to ensure consistency and effective governance across jurisdictions.

In his role at Praxis, he leads a Jersey-based team providing coordinated support across a broad range of asset classes, including commercial and residential property, private equity and chattels.

Commenting on his appointment, Luke said: “Complexity is a constant for international clients, and our priority is ensuring structures remain compliant, appropriate and effective over time and across jurisdictions. Our role is to provide that assurance and continuity.”

John Medina, Group Head of Private Wealth and Managing Director of Praxis in Jersey, added: “We continue to see strong demand from international clients for structures that adapt to change while maintaining sound governance. Jersey remains central to that proposition, and we are focused on strengthening local expertise while connecting it to our international platform.

“Luke’s appointment reflects that approach. His experience further enhances our ability to support clients with complex, multi-layered arrangements, delivering solutions that are practical, resilient and aligned to long-term objectives.”

With a team of over 70 in Jersey, Praxis is one of the largest independent providers of private wealth, corporate and fund administration services in the jurisdiction.
