Phillip Slavin has stepped down from his post as CEO of Taskize, 12 years after founding the company. Taskize’s head of business development, James Pike, has been appointed as interim CEO.
Slavin announced the news on LinkedIn, saying: “Taking Taskize from literally an idea to a globally recognised brand has been an incredible journey and I have made many great relationships along the way. I now look forward to my next challenge.”
Taskize was acquired by Euroclear over two years ago, and the post-trade issue resolution network almost doubled its client base under Slavin’s leadership.
Antonio Queiroz, chief digital officer at Euroclear and chairman of Taskize, says: “[Slavin] has worked tirelessly to cement Taskize’s position as Euroclear’s preferred client service channel.”
Philippe Laurensy, head of product, strategy and innovation at Euroclear, adds: “We look forward to continuing to support the next phase of the Taskize growth story which is to further align its intercompany workflows and ecosystem to Euroclear’s data-enabled services strategy.”
