WH Ireland, a leading stockbroking, wealth management and corporate finance services group, is pleased to announce that it has appointed Glenn Poulter to help develop the Group's corporate and institutional equities business.
Glenn Poulter began his career at Hoare Govett Ltd and has over 25 years' experience. His most recent position was head of equities at stockbroker Oriel Securities and prior to this he led Icap's global equities brokerage team. He has also held the role of head of cash equities at Citigroup's before departing for Icap in February 2008.
Paul Compton, CEO of WH Ireland, commented: "Glenn's appointment is another clear sign of the progress we are making at WH Ireland. Glenn is a very experienced individual and a fantastic addition to the growing team that we are building.
“This appointment is the tenth significant appointment we have made in the last six months. The fragmentation of the small cap broking market has created many opportunities for an ambitious firm such as WH Ireland and we will continue to capitalise on these through both new hires and new client wins."
