Commenting on the appointment, Andrew said:

“Having strategically entered the London market earlier this year, we have established and developed strong partnerships with well-known players, specifically within the asset and investment management sector. As a result, we have acquired ample new business and we are expanding our front office team to support our growth in this market.

With extensive experience in fixed income investments and FX sales in Dublin and London, Orla is well positioned to be a specialist in the recruitment of front office professionals across both locations. Leveraging off her understanding of the buy and sell side as well as the wider financial market, Orla will provide an engaging and consultative service for our individuals and clients.
