I’ve been in the Eurobond market for 39 years, primarily as a US$ broker but also working within other currencies. With a robust career in running desks within the bond market, I have honed my leadership and organisational skills to effectively plan and manage teams, leveraging each colleague's unique strengths to their fullest potential. My strong communication skills enable me to build and nurture client relationships with meticulous attention to detail, thereby promoting our business model effectively. Throughout my career, I have also dedicated myself to the training and development of junior staff members, both on my desk and across other teams. My commitment to high standards of work ethic and behaviour has seen all my trainees progress to successful careers in the markets, either with our company or with competitors. I take pride in my ability to utilise my people skills to create an environment of trust and ease, whether with colleagues or clients. My strong work ethic drives me to ensure that everything I undertake is done correctly and to the best of my ability. From trainee to Desk Head of $ bonds. Previous experience was as a trader in the LSE.I believe I am a ‘people’ person, good communication skills and a natural ability to help people develop their roles and skills.
