Fund administrators Belasko have made seven appointments in its Guernsey office, with the creation of three new management positions and a new local Managing Director.

Hannah Dunnell is taking on the MD role overseeing team performance, staff culture and day-to-day operations.

She has more than 17 years of experience in the local financial services industry, working across fund administration, corporate services and company secretarial services. Greg McKenzie has left the role, transferring to the Luxembourg office also as Managing Director.

Belasko has also appointed Daniella Hatton as a Funds Manager, Ceisha Martin as Funds Administrator Manager, and Kirstie Trudgeon as an Operations Manager. 

Ms Hatton holds the International Diploma in Financial Administration and the Chartered Governance Institute Diploma and has more than nine years of financial services experience. Ms Martin has a Level 5 Diploma in International Finance & Administration with the Chartered Governance Institute, and Ms Trudgeon has a background in funds.

Meanwhile, Jane Ravenwood has also been appointed as a Senior Fund Administrator, Steffie Flynn has joined Belasko as a Fund Administrator, and Georgia Parrish has started as a Compliance Officer.

“I’m passionate about culture and promoting the development of the next generation, particularly the continued development of women in business,” Ms Dunnell said.

“In my view people are the biggest asset of a business and therefore, must be considered in every aspect of evolution for an organisation. I feel a natural synergy and cohesion with the team here at Belasko; something that will be integral in driving the growth of a dynamic business.”

Paul Lawrence, Group Managing Director, added: “We are thrilled to be expanding the business with a strong and experienced group of new joiners. They will work with Belasko to implement a robust structure and service, bolstering the team and strengthening our services."
