Peter Slack, Regional Sales Manager at Spring Capital Partners.
Spring Capital Partners has appointed Peter Slack to the position of Regional Sales Manager, as the independent funds’ distribution partner looks to expand its presence in the North of England and Scotland.
Based in Manchester, Slack joins Spring Capital from T. Rowe Price, where he worked for seven years, with responsibility for developing relationships with discretionary fund managers and investment intermediaries in the North of England and Ireland; he had earlier been responsible for Scotland, the Isle of Man, and Northern Ireland. Slack’s career includes three years with AXA Investment Managers as a discretionary sales manager and six years with Schroders Investment Management as head of its broker sales desk.
Slack will add strength and depth to the six-person UK sales team and take Spring Capital’s total UK-based employee headcount to 16. His appointment follows hot on the heels of that of Delphine Kadel as Managing Director, of Germany & Austria, and Christian Nilsson as Managing Director, of Nordics, with Spring looking to extend its distribution footprint in mainland Europe, as well as its UK core.
Over the best part of two decades, Spring Capital has been working with a select group of boutique fund managers, helping to bring them to the attention of fund buyers and asset allocators. Working with each from their earliest days, Spring has helped to build the total assets under management of its fund manager partners to more than £7bn.
“We have enjoyed tremendous growth with Chelverton, Evenlode, and Zennor. Their respective market-leading propositions are now firmly established amongst fund buyers and asset allocators alike. As activity levels rise, we are determined to build on our reputation for service excellence and ease of access. We are therefore delighted to have Peter on board as we invest in the next phase of our development as an independent distribution partner.”
Justin Eede Director at Spring Capital.
