Hazeltree has appointed Ayman Sakr to the position of head of worldwide client services.
Sakr has more than 20 years of experience in professional services—he was previously global head of client services and product management at Paladyne, a company he co-founded, which was acquired by Broadridge in 2011.
He has been responsible for overseeing solution implementations and for supporting alternative investment managers the likes of hedge fund managers, asset managers, fund administrators and prime brokers.
In his new role, Sakr will be responsible for managing implementation for clients, as well as being involved in support and training.
His appointment comes shortly after Hazeltree hired J.P. Morgan’s Sal Ventura, who joined as head of client relationship management earlier this month.

He added: “Ayman Sakr is the exceptional leader who will ensure that we deliver service and satisfaction levels that surpass client expectations, and sustain client service excellence as we scale our organization and client base globally.”
Sakr said: “I personally want to ensure that every one of our clients is extremely delighted with the value of our products and the professionalism and effectiveness of our team in helping them achieve strategic advantage through proactive treasury management.”
