HarbourVest Partners has appointed Rob MacGoey as chief financial officer (CFO) for the firm’s management company.
In his new role, MacGoey will work closely with Karin Lagerlund, current CFO, who will focus on treasury and capital markets, and client and fund accounting.
He will be responsible for leading the finance offering of HarbourVest’s management company, including oversight of accounting and financial operations of all corporate entities and related partnerships.
MacGoey previously held the position of chief accounting officer and controller at Apollo Global Management.
John Toomey, managing director at HarbourVest, commented: “To support our future growth, we made the decision to split the finance function between the funds, under Karin Lagerlund’s continued leadership, and the management company, under Rob MacGoey’s leadership. This change will allow us to continue to scale our business and serve the needs of our clients.”
Lagerlund added: “Demand for accounting and administrative support is growing and becoming more complex in nature. Splitting our finance functions will allow us to continue to devote the appropriate attention and focus to each side.”
