Shabbir Gulamali
Investment Manager
London
What attracted you to a career in wealth management?
I was drawn to a career that would allow me to build long-term relationships, collaborate closely with clients and professionals, and stay connected to financial markets. I originally joined Quilter Cheviot in October 2012, having previously worked at UBS and Capital Group. After a brief period in international private banking, I returned to Quilter Cheviot. I hold an honours degree in Banking, Finance & Management from Loughborough University, and have since attained the Investment Management Certificate (IMC), the CISI Chartered Wealth Manager qualification (RDR Level 7), and most recently, the Islamic Finance Qualification (IFQ). I am a Chartered Fellow of the CISI. Over the years, I've developed strong technical expertise in finance and investments, alongside a genuine passion for helping clients achieve their financial goals through different life stages.
How do you look after clients?
As an Investment Manager, I manage bespoke portfolios for a wide range of clients including charities, private individuals, trusts, and corporations. I work closely with clients and their advisers to understand their unique circumstances and deliver tailored investment solutions aligned with their financial objectives. Regular communication and a commitment to high-quality service are central to my approach.
What are your interests outside of work?
Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my young family, and we love to travel whenever we can.
