3 November 2023

ZEDRA today announced the appointment of Alastair Meeks as Client Director. He will be based in London.

Kim Nash, Managing Director at ZEDRA Governance commented: “Our clients have different needs, so it’s imperative they have access to experts with a wide range of skills and experience, from varied backgrounds, to best suit their goals and objectives. Our dynamic team is progressive, pragmatic, and not bound by the typical ‘ways of doing things’. Our continued recruitment of first-class Client Directors, like Alastair, who can be far more tailored and strategic in their approach to supporting clients, is testament to the bespoke and distinctive service we offer.”

Nash continued: “Alastair’s legal expertise will be very helpful in this role, particularly for schemes facing major litigation, where corporate restructuring has had a material impact on covenant, or in evaluating the strategic options arising from surpluses. He’s a fantastic addition to our team and we look forward to working with him.”

Commenting on his appointment, Meeks added: “I am looking forward to bringing my years of legal expertise into play in an environment that allows me to develop creative solutions and guide trustee boards through their decision making. I have seen new challenges unfold, from all sides, and look forward to adding real value to our clients. ZEDRA offers a unique working environment of resource and support, as well as autonomy, and I’m excited to embark on this journey as part of the team.”

Alastair previously spent 28 years at Pinsent Masons LLP as a solicitor, going on to chair the Association of Pension Lawyers. He finished his time there as a partner running the firm’s independent trustee and pension scheme secretarial business.
