Crestbridge has appointed Michael Johnson as group head of fund services.
Johnson will be responsible for continuing to grow and evolve Crestbridge’s overall funds proposition, supporting managers operating across asset classes, including private equity, real estate, debt and credit funds.
With more than 17 years’ experience in international financial services, Johnson joins Crestbridge from Intertrust where he was head of fund services in the Channel Islands, responsible for developing the firm’s fund strategy.
Johnson is currently vice chair of the Jersey Funds Association.
He replaces Michael Newton, who has been appointed as head of client delivery, a newly created role.
In this new role, Newton will oversee client delivery and operations for Crestbridge’s fund, real estate and corporate services teams to ensure clients receive a high level of service.
Graeme McArthur, chief executive of Crestbridge, said: “Michael Newton will be drawing on his considerable experience to ensure clients receive the best possible service.”
He added: “As our multi-jurisdictional funds business continues to perform strongly, in particular across our core real estate and private equity asset classes, I’m delighted to welcome Michael Johnson, a leading figure in the international alternatives space, to Crestbridge.”
