Pease will succeed Liz Airey, who will step down form the board on the same date.
She has more than 30 years of experience in the industry and the wider financial services sector, having been both deputy chairman and CEO of JO Hambro. Pease also served as a non-executive director of Schroders from September 2012 to November 2019.
Senior independent director Jonathan Bond said: "She is an outstanding successor to our outgoing chairman and brings significant relevant experience to the board. At a time when Jupiter is moving forward under new leadership and with a refreshed plan to grow the business, Nichola's industry expertise will prove invaluable".
