Global custodian, Northern Trust has appointed long-standing executive and head of client services in Australasia, Sally Surgeon as head of its recently-opened Sydney office.
Surgeon began her new role on 1 June and is responsible for all aspects of Northern Trust’s growing Sydney office, including supporting various industry, client and consultant relationships in the city.
