Former Legg Mason marketing head joins Zenith

Anthony Pesutto has confirmed to Industry Moves his appointment as marketing and communications manager at Zenith Investment Partners, effective September 2017.

Most recently Pesutto has been consulting for boutique fund managers and before that was the head of marketing at Legg Mason, a role he left in late 2016 after nine years with the firm. His previous experience includes roles with Mercer, ANZ and Lonsec where he was a co-founder (funds research) and a senior investment analyst.

Commenting on his new role at Zenith, Pesutto said: "The business (Zenith) has a highly respected team and well-regarded product offering across research, advice and portfolios. As in my previous roles, I have been drawn to this one by the tremendous opportunity it offers to build a marketing and communications footprint and present Zenith's offering in a way that's refreshing, creative and cutting edge."
