P1 Investment Services, operator of the P1 Platform, has announced the appointment of Michelle Angell as Senior Client Services and Operations Manager.
Michelle brings over 20 years of experience across wealth management, platforms, and account management to P1 as the firm continues to serve an increasing number of advice firms.
Michelle will lead the development of P1’s client servicing team, ensuring advisers benefit from responsive and personalised service and smooth onboarding as the firm scales. She will also play a critical role in bringing her experience to the operations and regulatory compliance elements of platform delivery.
Michelle’s extensive background includes management and leadership roles at Atomos Wealth, Seccl, Abrdn, Winterflood Business Services, and Barclays Wealth, where she honed her expertise in account management and operations.

On Michelle’s hire, James Priday, CEO of P1 Investment Services, says: "Assets, revenue and the number of advice firms we support grew by 100% over the past 12-months, and we remain committed to maintaining the highest service standards for our users. We know innovative technology is just one part of the equation when it comes to building a great product, with high service levels being the other. Michelle’s appointment reflects this commitment and our focus on investing in people who understand the unique needs of our adviser clients. Michelle’s insight and experience will ensure we remain not just a platform provider and investment manager, but a trusted partner to firms of all sizes."
Angell added: "It was an obvious fit for me to be part of P1. It’s a hugely exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and forward-thinking team. Their focus on combining technology with outstanding client service is something I am passionate about, and I look forward to helping advisers and their clients achieve their goals."
