Equity Trustees creates GM Relationships & Oversight role

Equity Trustees has restructured its corporate services' senior management team and promoted former general manager fund services, Russell Beasley, to the newly-created role of general manager of relationships & oversight.

Beasley has over 20 years' experience in the funds management industry and joined Equity Trustees in 2005 as a senior relationship & product manager. He previously held roles with MLC Investment Management, National Australia Funds Management and County Investment Management.

Commenting on the restructure and Beasley's promotion (as well as the promotion of Michael Do to GM of fund operations & oversight), Harvey Kalman, executive GM of Equity Trustees Corporate Trustee Services, said: "Overall our corporate trustee services team has an outstanding track record - almost a quarter of the team has been with Equity Trustees for more that 10 years, and most have over five years with the business."

He added: "This depth and breadth of experience and technical knowledge, as well as our approach in ensuring we understand the latest developments and changes in a complex and demanding area, allows us to provide exemplary client service."
