Melbourne-based asset manager SG Hiscock has appointed Giles Croker as chief executive and chief operating officer.

Founder and managing director Stephen Hiscock, who set up the firm in 2001, would continue with the firm as executive chair and chief investment officer.

Croker joined SG Hiscock 20 years ago and was most recently chief financial officer. His transition to the role of chief executive had been in development for a number of years, the firm said, including having acted as co-chief executive officer with Hiscock for a period of time in 2021.

According to Hiscock, the process in formally appointing Croker to the role had been “seamless” and was well supported by the company board and management team.

“As a business, we undertook the necessary due diligence required on the chief executive appointment and Giles has been regarded as a natural successor for some time,” he said.

“He brings extensive financial and business acumen to the table and I’m confident he will continue to lead the business on a positive growth trajectory.”

The appointment of Croker was unanimously endorsed by the board and all other roles remained unchanged.
