Praxis has appointed Ian Crellin as Client Services Director in its Isle of Man office, strengthening the leadership of its local client services team and reinforcing its commitment to building long-term relationships through trust, responsiveness and consistent delivery.

Ian joined Praxis in 2026 and serves on the Board of the Isle of Man business, where he is responsible for leading the team that oversees the day-to-day administration of client structures.

Ian brings 30 years of experience in financial services, primarily within the trust and corporate services sector. He has worked closely with high and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families and corporate clients, supporting the management of complex wealth, fiduciary and business structures.

As Client Services Director, Ian provides leadership and guidance to colleagues while maintaining high standards of service for clients and advisers. His appointment supports the continued growth and success of Praxis’ Isle of Man business, where it has operated since 2018.

Commenting on his appointment, Ian said: “I’ve always valued working in independent firms because they allow you to take a long-term, personal view of each client’s needs. At Praxis, that independence is supported by real depth of expertise and collaboration, enabling us to take a pragmatic, considered approach and stay focused on what matters most to the individuals, families and businesses we work with.”

Robert Fearis, Chief Executive Officer, added: “Ian’s depth of experience, local knowledge and client-focused approach make him a strong addition to our Isle of Man team.
