Due to the global demand for the company’s expertise and services, Edinburgh based Barrie & Hibbert, leaders in Economic Scenario Solutions, has launched a recruitment drive to further strengthen their teams worldwide.
Recently announced vacancies include Analysts, Software Developers and Consultants. These new positions are based throughout our offices in Edinburgh, London, New York and Hong Kong.
As part of the company’s growth strategy, Barrie & Hibbert has appointed Vall Herard as the new Head of Americas. Vall is responsible for all operational and commercial aspects of Barrie & Hibbert’s operations and products in the area. Vall has more than 16 years experience in business development and risk management. He comments: “Since the US office opened two years ago, Barrie & Hibbert has built up an invaluable reputation working successfully with some of the biggest insurance providers in the area. I’m delighted to be part of the team.”
Vall takes over from Craig Turnbull, who returns to the UK after 2 years in New York to fill the position of Head of Institutional Products and Consultancy. Craig was responsible for launching Barrie & Hibbert’s US office in 2008, and has an in-depth understanding of the complex market there and also in Europe. Craig comments: “I am looking forward to bringing the experience I gained in the US to my new role. The financial markets continually evolve and Barrie & Hibbert is in an excellent position to provide solutions.”
In another internal move, Shailendra Jain will take up the position of Head of EMEA and APAC (Europe, Middle East & Asia and Asia Pacific) in London. Shailendra transfers from Hong Kong, where he was responsible for establishing Barrie & Hibbert’s presence in this evolving market. The new role allows him to further strengthen the APAC region, and work closely with the expanding EMEA team. Shailendra comments: “It has been a privilege to establish the Asia Pacific office. I look forward to working with the EMEA team and driving growth for Barrie & Hibbert”.
