Anna Maltzoff, Head of Junior Talent Programmes:
“I am thrilled to join the excellent leadership team at Vantage Point at this exciting time in the company’s journey, heading up the Junior Talent Programme Practice. Over the last few years, the UK and wider market has encountered incredible changes – stemming from the fallout from the credit crunch, disruptive changes in technology, tighter regulation, Brexit tension and of course the pandemic – all of which have made Financial Services leaner, tougher yet much more difficult for younger talent to access and navigate. I’m looking forward to supporting the next generation of leaders become the very best they can be.”
James Brincat, CEO:
“The need to create these new roles demonstrate Vantage Point’s ongoing commitment to managing our growth whilst delivering excellence for existing and new clients. Rich and Anna bring a wealth of experience, bundles of energy and a passion for developing junior talent in the financial services sector. We’re delighted to welcome them onboard and I cannot wait to see what we can achieve together. It’s going to be an exciting year for Vantage Point”.
