Ocorian, a global provider of fund administration, corporate, trust and capital markets services, has significantly strengthened its European and UK business development team with five new business development directors.
The new recruits include Natasha Head, Andrew Stewart, Chris Mayfield, Vivienne Fitzpatrick, and William Turmann.
Head, who has 10 years of experience in the alternatives sector, has been appointed to support the growth of the business in alternative investments in the UK and Europe.
She joins from Maitland and brings her experience of providing custody solutions to managed account structures and fund administration to venture capital and private equity managers.
Meanwhile, Stewart brings with him more than 30 years of experience in providing a range of financial and administration support to alternative investment and listed funds in Europe, Middle East and Africa, North America and Asia.
Most recently, he served as executive director at MUFG Investor Services and executive vice president at The Citco Group.
Mayfield joins from Vistra and works closely with Ocorian's client facing teams to drive the commercial growth of the group's broad range of corporate services across the UK and European markets.
He brings with him over 20 years of commercial experience, including having owned, managed and successfully exited small businesses of his own both in the UK and in Europe.
Fitzpatrick, who has 15 years of banking and funds experience, has previously worked in senior leadership business development roles at J.P. Morgan (London), Barclays Capital (Asia), and State Street.
She applies her experience to partner with clients seeking to accelerate their business growth with a scalable and reliable outsourced support model.
Based in Luxembourg, Turmann joins from Societe Generale Luxembourg where he previously served as vice president.
Turmann has experience providing integrated investment solutions for asset managers and will focus on the acquisition of new funds and corporate clients.
Simon Behan, chief commercial officer of Ocorian, comments: “The calibre of our new appointments represents the confidence and ambition we have in our growth capabilities as a leading provider of funds and corporate services."
"As economies begin to reopen and rebuild, fund managers and corporates are increasingly going to need administration and compliance support to implement their strategies with confidence.”
“With a depth of experience across the funds and corporate sectors, our business development team is perfectly placed to connect these market players with our world-class client solutions, helping them to achieve scale and substance in what is a rapidly changing business landscape,” adds Behan.
