Building Careers, Building Relationships – The Next Generation Gathers

PCD NextGen London Lunch | Friday 6 March 2026

Sponsored by Locate Isle of Man

The day after PCD's flagship Fishmongers Hall dinner brings together the senior leaders of international private wealth, we turn our attention to the future. On Friday 6 March, PCD presents our NextGen Spring Edition lunch – an exclusive gathering designed specifically for the rising professionals who will shape the next decade of cross-border wealth advisory.

For Associates, Trainees, and Early-Career Professionals

This event is purpose-built for junior partners, associates, trainee solicitors, assistant portfolio managers, paraplanners, business development executives, and tax consultants in their first five to ten years of practice. If you're building your expertise in private client law, wealth management, trust administration, tax advisory, or related disciplines, this is where you belong.

London's Busiest Week of the Year

With the IBA Conference and Corporate Jet Investor both taking place during the same week, London becomes the epicentre of global wealth management activity. While Thursday's dinner connects senior decision-makers, Friday's lunch creates space for emerging talent to meet peers navigating similar challenges – from managing complex international client cases to building referral networks across multiple jurisdictions.

Insights from Locate Isle of Man

We're delighted to welcome Locate Isle of Man as the sponsor for this event. The Isle of Man has established itself as a sophisticated jurisdiction for wealth structuring, trust and fiduciary services, fund administration, and high-net-worth relocation. For younger advisors working with internationally mobile clients, understanding the full suite of jurisdictional options is essential – and the Isle of Man's combination of regulatory strength, accessibility, and innovation makes it increasingly relevant for the next generation of HNW planning.

Locate Isle of Man will share practical insights into how the jurisdiction is evolving to meet emerging client needs and what early-career advisors should know when considering Isle of Man solutions.

A Different Atmosphere, Same Quality

While Thursday evening brings together partners and directors in the grandeur of Fishmongers Hall, Friday's lunch offers something equally valuable – peer-to-peer connection in a relaxed, collaborative environment. The conversations here are about sharing experiences across different practice areas, understanding how peers approach similar client challenges, and establishing relationships that will endure throughout your careers.

There's no hierarchy here. Whether you qualified last year or five years ago, whether you're in London or Jersey or the Isle of Man, this is your community.

Why March 2026 Matters

This lunch comes at a pivotal moment in the private wealth calendar. You'll meet peers who attended the IBA Conference, connect with junior professionals from firms whose senior partners were at Thursday's dinner, and gain insights into what's driving strategic conversations at the highest levels of the industry – all translated into practical relevance for your day-to-day work.
