Jason Clinton will play a pivotal role in the development and implementation of the Treasury Services sales strategy for bank and non-bank financial institutions as J.P. Morgan's new head of financial institutions group sales.
He will take ownership of relationship management with existing and prospective clients and report to Nadia Schiavon, managing director and head of treasury services.
