In his new role, which he assumes in July, Dangerfield will sit on the board of Cazenove Capital Management (Jersey) and as part of his role will take on the marketing of Cazenove Capital's wealth management services.

Dangerfield was latterly managing director of Asset Risk Consultants (Jersey) – a role he took up in 2008 – having previously been director of investment services at Mourant Private Wealth in Jersey. He has also worked for Royal Bank of Canada, Hill Samuel Bank and Midland BankFund Managers.

In other recent developments, at the start of this year the firm bolstered its board with the addition of asset management veteran Rupert Tyer as a non-executive director.

Tyer recently retired from Cantillon Capital Management, the London- and New York-based equities boutique of which he was a founding partner. Before this he was managing director of Lazard Unit Trust Managers, charged with business development, distribution and marketing strategy for its UK- and Dublin-based operations.
