FundRock has hired Ronan Doyle as head of risk and operations for its alternative investment fund management (AIFM) and UCITS management company branch in Ireland.
With 18 years of experience in the funds industry, Doyle specialises in fund admnistration, depository and management company services. His appointment is intended to further encourage the growth and development of FundRock’s Irish business.
Previously, Doyle worked at Capita Asset Services, where he was responsible for the AIFM and UCITS management company of Capita Ireland.
Before this, he spent 12 years at J.P. Morgan Bank in Ireland, holding positions including fund accounting operations manager, and trust and fiduciary client service manager.
Ross Thomson, managing director of FundRock Ireland, said: “At FundRock we have a long heritage in fund governance developed over 80 years and have been involved in the Irish market servicing funds since 2012.”
“As we look to expand our offering in Ireland it is important that we source local talent and expertise in order to enhance our clients experience and increase our Irish network.”
The announcement follows the appointment of Louise Harris to FundRock’s Irish branch as head of legal and compliance. Harris’s appointment, announced at the end of March, was reportedly part of a long-term strategy to improve investment management services for Irish-domiciled funds.
