Apex Group has opened a new office in Denver, Colorado, continuing its US expansion.
The office will be led by James Wheatley, global head of operations for private equity and direct lending, and Jason Sauve, director of fund administration services.
Client service delivery teams are already in operation in the Denver area, with the company projecting to double its headcount in the region over the next year. Apex’s US operations currently employ more than 600 people, spread across 15 local offices. In August, Frederick Shaw was appointed country head.
Wheatley comments: “Denver continues to be a prominent and attractive hub for private equity and real assets funds due to the supportive business environment, entrepreneurial and skilled workforce and sophisticated financial services ecosystem. I look forward to exploring the organic growth opportunities and to leading and growing our local team.”
Georges Archibald, chief innovation officer and regional managing director for the Americas, says: “With offices across the US, we understand the importance of proximity — for both our clients and our employees. Our Denver office will address the demand for a locally delivered, tech-enabled single-source solution.”
