Paul Matthews

Paul is an independent non-executive director at Quilter, and an experienced FTSE 1 board director who has over four decades’ worth of knowledge of the savings and pensions industry. His career at Standard Life, spanning nearly 3 years, where his roles included group executive director, chief executive officer UK and Europe and chair of Standard Life Wealth, enables him to identify, and support management to understand the opportunities and risks facing Quilter, particularly in its distribution businesses. This insight enables him to effectively assess and challenge the executive’s strategy proposals, execution and risk management. Paul spent three years as a workforce engagement director and stepped down from this role at the conclusion of the 223 AGM. As an executive mentor at Merryck & Co, Paul uses his extensive leadership skills and experience to coach senior leaders.
