At Forward Group our specialist team are at the heart of everything we do. Their personal development forms an integral part of our core values and our business ethos ensures that we nurture building long term staff retention as part of that process. We truly believe embedding this supports the long-term growth strategy of the business.

In light of this, we are delighted to start 2021 announcing the promotion of 2 members of our team:

Daryl Blondel has been promoted into the role of Senior Client Manager. Daryl joined Forward in in February 2020 and has excelled in his time with us, demonstrated by the pride he takes in customer interactions and the ideas he has brought into the business with his extensive experience in the sector.

Director, Simon Voisin, commented: “Having worked with Daryl previously we already knew about his work ethic, client focus and attention to detail. However, it has been particularly rewarding to see him apply these skills in a boutique business resulting in a well-deserved promotion.”

Gemma Aubert is promoted in the role of Company Administrator, Gemma has initially joined our sister company GS Accountants and then progressed to support Forward whilst undertaking qualifications in Offshore Administration. Her excellent communication skills and relationship building skills has helped support the team and been integral to her development.

Simon Voisin’s comments reflected the above progress; “We knew very early on that Gemma had great potential. In a very short space of time Gemma has become a popular and valued member of team, with both colleagues and clients, and is well on the way in her chosen career having already passed several modules of the Certificate in Offshore Administration.”

Both Daryl and Gemma featured in the Jersey Finance ‘Jersey for Good’ campaign in 2020 and forward is delighted to announce these promotions come into force with immediate effect.
