Invesco imports new CFO from London
Invesco Australiatoday appointed Aaron Finlay to the role of chief financial officer, a week after chief executive Michael Parsons made way for incoming chief Mark Armour.
Finlay leaves the position of head of group tax and treasury in Invesco’s London office to take up the new position, and will now be in charge of the operations of Invesco Australia’s finance department, as well as the compliance, legal, and human resources functions.
Finlay has been with the Invesco Global group since 1998, being appointed as head of group tax and treasury in January 2001 where he managed Invesco’s corporate cash and banking relationships, and its corporate tax exposure.
Prior to joining Invesco, Aaron worked for PricewaterhouseCoopers in London and Perth.
New chief executive Mark Armour says he looks forward to working with Finlay and the new look Invesco management team.
“[Finlay’s] experience and insight will be invaluable to the organisation,” he says.
According to Armour, Finlay’s appointment is indicative of the extensive resources available through Invesco’s global network.
Finlay and Armour join the Invesco fold following a number of high profile recent departures and appointments at the fund manager. Earlier this year, Invesco suffered two other key departures with head of sales Tony McFayden and Australian equities portfolio manager Greg Chapman leaving the group to pursue other interests.
Recent appointments include Peter Hodgson as head of sales and marketing, Peter Osborne as head of economics, Mark Jackson as regional sales manager in Sydney and Tracey Franks as senior marketing manager.
