Reckon Financial Services appoints Ivan Murphy as Finance Director
Jersey-headquartered Reckon Financial Services announced today the appointment of Ivan Murphy as Finance Director. The move follows the official launch of Reckon Financial Services during September 2024, after the company secured a Trust Company Business licence earlier this year.
Murphy, a member of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants with more than two decades of financial services experience, assumes responsibility for the company’s financial control and strategic financial planning, alongside cash flow, risk management, and stakeholder communications.
Ivan contributes a unique blend of front-line experience building and running financial services businesses, with a particular focus on client servicing and tech driven modernisation.
In his previous role with a multi-jurisdictional offshore finance group, Murphy led a team that completed a three-year Enterprise Resource Planning and Management Service project. He’s also guided finance teams in CFO and Head of Finance roles through acquisitions and organic growth in multiple jurisdictions, while also overseeing management buy-outs with private equity.
“It’s hugely satisfying to join an ambitious and growing team in Reckon that’s looking to disrupt financial services for the better,” commented Ivan Murphy, Finance Director, Reckon Financial Services. “With our new licence in hand, my priority is to help Reckon to be faster, smarter, and more effective through the tech tools we use daily. We know that clients today expect services that are tailored to their circumstances and maximise their operational efficiency. Reckon has all the capabilities to deliver this and more,” added Murphy.
A committed athlete who competed at the Official Strongman Games European and World Championships, Murphy strengthens Reckon’s evolving chartered-status team in more ways than one. “Ivan is an ideal fit to help Reckon grow as a strategic advisory, offering a broad set of adaptable services that meet the unpredictable needs of businesses,” said Jim McCartan, Co Founder and Director of Reckon Financial Services. “With our Trust Company Business licence, we aim to be a dependable partner for full financial preparedness, and Ivan’s strong background in business growth, client service, and tech transformation will help us reach that goal.”
