Zedra has appointed Daniel Walsh as client director and head of governance advisory arrangement (GAA) research.
Walsh comes from Isio, where he served as the director of research in fiduciary management. Additionally, he has worked at Bank of New York Mellon and Xafinity Consulting, which is now a division of XPS.
Walsh will be based in the firm’s Leeds office and will be responsible for shaping Zedra’s GAA.
Zedra managing director Kim Nash says: “At ZEDRA our people are a key differentiator; and when it comes to trusteeship the fit of the individual is crucial. Of course there needs to be first-class technical expertise, but what really makes a great trustee is their people skills – supporting individuals with often different focuses and agendas to work together; understanding and being adaptable to culture and tone, and being able to challenge effectively.
“We invest in a pool of diverse talent, recruiting energetic and pragmatic individuals with different styles and approaches, who have made professional trusteeship a career choice. Daniel is an experienced strategic thinker with an outward-looking approach, and he will be an excellent addition to our team.”
Walsh says: “The professional trustee market remains a real growth area and Zedra are at the forefront. Their forward-thinking approach to trusteeship, along with their diverse range of services, makes them a really appealing team to work with. I am looking forward to getting involved in new areas but ultimately my goal remains the same, to help clients to achieve their objectives in a straightforward manner.”
