Allemby Hunt Acquires Global Financial Search
14 April 2011
Allemby Hunt is pleased to announce that Lisa Delaryd, owner and Head of Global Financial Search, today joined Allemby Hunt as part of their Global Markets recruitment expansion strategy.
Lisa Delaryd of Global Financial Search said: "This move makes strategic sense because we were acting in some of the same areas as Allemby Hunt, but on a smaller scale. I was attracted to Allemby Hunt by the clear ambition and plans the owners have for the company. The opportunity to build a profitable business within an already successful and growing company was too good an opportunity to miss and while I hope to bring the benefit of my significant experience of the markets to Allemby Hunt, it is enormously reassuring to join a business where an extensive network of clients and relationships already exists."
Lisa will be joining the Allemby Hunt Capital Markets Group, broadening and complementing their Fixed Income Sales desk, as well covering Rates Trading and Rates Futures and Options.
Lisa has over 12 years' markets experience working within institutional equity sales for Brown Brothers Harriman, Peregrine Securities, CSFB, Schroder's Securities and HSBC in New York, London and Hong Kong. She moved into executive search in 2004, covering primarily fixed income sales and trading, both flow and derivatives, including futures and options, focusing on AD to MD level placements. Lisa is Swedish, but grew up in Japan and took her BA from Dartmouth College, New Hampshire and Masters from Columbia University, New York.
Hugo Hunt, MD of Allemby Hunt said: "Lisa's arrival strengthens our offering in Global Markets and she brings with her a wealth of experience and knowledge of clients and the markets. She will be a key player in the future development and ongoing success of our business."
