Vision
To create a world in which financial services are better run and better governed.
Mission
By being a trusted and available partner that brings together best-in-class expertise.
Independent judgement, supported by wider expertise.
Deep knowledge built through deliberate professional experience and continued learning.
The judgement to say what a client or colleague needs to hear, not simply what is easiest.
A practical focus on resolving the issue, improving the work and following through.
The confidence to contribute your own perspective and the openness to draw on someone else's.
Altair professionals bring deep individual experience, while being able to draw upon ideas, expertise and knowledge from their colleagues across the business. Uniquely, this gives each Altair professional a broader, more well-informed perspective when it comes to decision-making or delivery of advice.
Independent directors for investment funds and corporate boards.
Regulatory, compliance, board effectiveness and company secretarial support for firms facing change, scrutiny or a shortage of experienced capacity.
Independent appointments and fiduciary investment consulting for trusts, private trust companies and family offices.
Governance, risk and compliance tools shaped by practical experience.
Altair began in Jersey in 2012, when Ian Lambert and Julia Chapman founded the business to provide independent directorship and governance services.
Its capabilities later expanded when Cyan Regulatory joined the group, adding the regulatory expertise Nicola Crowell had helped establish.
Today, Altair brings together independent professionals across governance, regulation, consulting and technology.
Through The Magpie Trust, people across Altair help direct support to local and international charities.
Altair grows by choosing people with sound judgement, deep expertise and the willingness to support others across the group.
