Ten minutes with Kenneth Whitney of Alter Domus

"No day is ever the same at Alter Domus, we are constantly evolving with new products and solutions for a wide range of clients"

Kenneth Whitney: "You shouldn’t be afraid to admit to what you don’t know — there will be someone somewhere who does know."

After completing an ACCA-approved course at Waterford Institute of Technology in 1995, I worked in Cork in the audit sector, before moving into fund services with a role at Barings (now Northern Trust) in Guernsey. Since then, I have seen first-hand the growth of the fund services industry across Ireland and especially in Cork. 

I consider myself very fortunate to have entered this sector early in my career, as it has given me opportunities to travel and experience life abroad, before moving back to Cork with my family. Outside of work, I am an armchair sportsman, and enjoy walking, listening to music, and spending time with my family. I am also something of a Lego fanatic! And while I enjoyed working from home, I am glad to be able to make use of our 'Future Fit' office in Cork and meet my team and colleagues in person again on a regular basis.
