Windsor, who is currently CFO at housebuilder Persimmon, is expected to join the group by the end of October.

Abrdn said he is a highly experienced CFO and brings "demonstrated expertise and significant knowledge of the industry" from over a decade within the Aviva Group, latterly as group CFO, departing from that role in 2022.

He joined Aviva in 2010 after 15 years at Morgan Stanley, latterly as a managing director within its investment banking division advising financial sector clients.

Chief executive Stephen Bird said: "Jason is a superb addition to our executive team at abrdn, bringing almost three decades of experience from the UK financial services sector. He is a clear thinker who knows our markets and has first-hand knowledge of life as a public company CFO. He can unquestionably help us drive the business to the next level."
