Global advisory, fund administration and fiduciary services firm Maitland has hired Scott Price to spearhead its ambitious growth aims in the US market. Price will be joining the firm as Head of Business Development and Client Management for North America.
The announcement comes during a period of rapid global growth for Maitland, following hot on the heels of its expansion into the UK market via the acquisition of Phoenix Fund Services.
Price will be responsible for leading sales and client management efforts across the continent. The hire also coincides with Maitland’s rebranding of its US operations (previously known under the ‘Admiral’ name) in line with its global ‘one firm’ model, in which he will also play a key part.
Price brings a wealth of industry experience to the new role, having spent nearly a decade with TMF Custom House Global Fund Services, most recently as Regional Director and Head of Sales and board member for its parent company. During his 14-year professional career Scott has advised clients in the alternative hedge fund industry, spearheaded technology and product development initiatives, opened satellite offices and led change management programmes, among other achievements.
Price says: “This is a fantastic opportunity to grow a great business in a market where it has plenty of potential to expand. Maitland offers a very appealing proposition: it boasts the optimal platform, the best people with the deepest expertise, can draw on excellent global resources, and consistently delivers for clients at the highest level of quality.
“Maitland’s market share in the US should reflect these standout strengths and that is what we’re aiming for,” says Price.
Maitland Head of Group Business Development David Kubilus, says: “I’m delighted to welcome such a talented and driven individual to Maitland. I am confident his diverse skillset, strategic mindset, and strong interpersonal abilities – combined with the depth of his expertise – will enable him to deliver on our ambitious aims in the US market.”
